Most governments and global political organizations have been
dominated by male leaders and structures that institutionalize male
privilege. As Women and Gender in International History reveals,
however, women have participated in and influenced the traditional
concerns of international history even as they have expanded those
concerns in new directions. Karen Garner provides a timely
synthesis of key scholarship and establishes the influential roles
that women and gender power relations have wielded in determining
the course of international history. From the early-20th century
onward, women have participated in state-to-state relations and
decisions about when to pursue diplomacy or when to go to war to
settle international conflicts. Particular women, as well as
masculine and feminine gender role constructs, have also influenced
the establishment and evolution of intergovernmental organizations
and their political, social and economic policy making regimes and
agencies. Additionally, feminists have critiqued male-dominated
diplomatic establishment and intergovernmental organizations and
have proposed alternative theories and practices. This text
integrates women, and gender and feminist analyses, into the study
of international history in order to produce a broader
understanding of processes of international change during the 20th
and 21st centuries.
