Security studies and international relations have conventionally
relegated gendered analysis to the margins of academic concern,
most commonly through the 'women in' or 'women and' politics and IR
discourse. This comprehensive volume contributes to debates which
seek to move feminist scholarship away from the reification of the
war/peace and security/economy divides. By foregrounding the
empirical reality of the breakdown of these traditional divisions,
the authors pay particular attention to frameworks which query
their very existence. In doing so, the collection as a whole
troubles the ubiquitous concept and practices of '(in)security' and
their effects on differentially positioned subjects. By gendering
(in)securities in 'states of exception' and other paradigms of
government related to it, especially in postcolonial and
neocolonial contexts, the book provides an approach that allows us
to study the complex and interrelated security logics, which
constitute the messy realities of different - and particularly
vulnerable - subjects' lives. In other words, it suggests that
these frameworks are ripe for feminist interventions and analysis
of the logics and production of (in)securities as well as of
resistance and hybridisation. This book was originally published as
an online special issue of the journal Third World Thematics.
