Security studies and international relations have conventionally relegated gendered analysis to the margins of academic concern most commonly through the âwomen inâ or âwomen andâ 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 â(in)securityâ and their effects on differentially positioned subjects. By gendering (in)securities in âstates of exceptionâ 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 â and particularly vulnerable â subjectsâ 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. . Language: English
