Feminist Foreign Policy Analysis
How can feminist scholarship advance the field of foreign policy analysis to better understand contemporary foreign policy actions and challenges?
This groundbreaking book provides the state-of-the-art in the study of gender, feminisms and foreign policy. Bringing together contributors from around the world, chapters offer new analyses of foreign policy topics, including diplomacy, trade, defence, environment, peacebuilding, disinformation and development assistance. The book advances new theories, concepts and empirical knowledge for the emerging field of feminist foreign policy analysis.
The book stands as a vital resource for scholars, students and practitioners seeking to understand and respond to the multifaceted gendered dynamics of global politics.
“This book is a gift. By bringing these innovators in Feminist IR Theory into lively conversation with analysts of Feminist Foreign Policy, Aggestam and True show us what an exciting new scholarly field looks like. Furthermore, this book is an invitation to us all to take a deep breath and plunge in.” Cynthia Enloe, author of Twelve Feminist Lessons of War
“This book is a much-needed intervention in the Foreign Policy Analysis subfield and the study of International Relations. With its showcase of a wide range of approaches, all grounded in feminist thinking, it makes a unique and incredibly useful contribution for students, scholars, and practitioners of foreign policy.” Juliet Kaarbo, University of St. Andrews
"This book is a compelling invitation to craft a new idiom for foreign policy that will create a more inclusive and just world order. It shakes us out of our staid and comfortable ‘constructions’ of the ‘accepted’ and ‘acceptable’ in the foreign policy domain." Meenakshi Gopinath, Women in Security Conflict Management and Peace
