Women, Insecurity, and Violence in a Post-9/11 World, Paperback / softback Book

Women, Insecurity, and Violence in a Post-9/11 World Paperback / softback

Part of the Gender and Globalization series

Paperback / softback

Description

September 11 has become a temporal and symbolic marker of the world’s brutal entry into the third millennium.

Nearly all discussions of world politics today include a tacit, if not overt, reference to that historical moment.

A decade and a half on, Winter considers the impact of 9/11 on women around the world.

How were women affected by the events of that day? Were all women affected in the same way? Based on theoretical reflection, empirical research, and field work in different parts of the world, each chapter of the book considers a different post-9/11 issue in relation to women: global governance, human security, globalized militarism, identity, and sexuality in transnational feminist movements.
