Cynthia Enloe est une théoricienne féministe renommée pour son travail novateur qui examine les liens complexes entre le genre et le militarisme. Ses contributions ont façonné le domaine des relations internationales féministes, offrant des perspectives pionnières sur la politique internationale et l'économie politique. Influencée par des approches ethnographiques, l'écriture d'Enloe explore comment les structures mondiales sont façonnées par les inégalités de genre. Sa voix distinctive et sa rigueur académique offrent aux lecteurs une lentille essentielle pour comprendre le monde.
With her trademark engaging style, at once accessible and provocative, Cynthia Enloe draws on first-hand experiences of war in countries as diverse as Ukraine, Syria and Northern Ireland to show how women's wars are not men's wars, and why feminist campaigners remain active - against all odds - in the midst of armed violence.
Making Feminist Sense of International Politics [Updated Edition]
This radical analysis of globalization reveals the crucial role of women in international politics today. Cynthia Enloe pulls back the curtain on the familiar scenes—governments promoting tourism, companies moving their factories overseas, soldiers serving on foreign soil—and shows that the real landscape is not exclusively male. She describes how many women's seemingly personal strategies—in their marriages, in their housework, in their coping with ideals of beauty—are, in reality, the stuff of global politics. In exposing policymakers' reliance on false notions of "femininity" and "masculinity," Enloe dismantles an apparently overwhelming world system, revealing it to be much more fragile and open to change than we think.
