demonstrating the unique insight a feminist analysis offers this
central area of international law. The book highlights key
conceptual barriers to the enhanced application of the law of the
use of force, and develops international feminist method through
rigorous engagement with the key writers in the field The book
looks at the key aspects of the UN Charter relevant to the use of
force - Article 2(4), Article 51 and Chapter VII powers - as well
as engaging with contemporary debates on the possibility of
justified force to meet self-determination or humanitarian goals.

pre-emptive force and reflects on the role feminist legal theories
can play in exposing the inconsistencies of contemporary arguments
for justified force under the banner of the war on terror.

are analysed, alongside key instances of the use of force. The book
makes a genuine, urgently needed contribution to a central area of
international law, demonstrating the capacity of feminist legal
theories to enlarge our understanding of key international legal
dilemmas.
