Zusammenfassung:"Drawing on firsthand experiences of war from women in places as diverse as Ukraine, Myanmar, Somalia, Vietnam, Rwanda, Algeria, Syria, and Northern Ireland, this book shows how women's wars are not men's wars - and why that matters. Cynthia Enloe reveals the fraught politics of masculinity in drafting soldiers, the politics of femininity manipulated in caring for war's wounded, and why we should all be paying attention to Ukrainian feminists in wartime. Her razor-sharp analysis highlights how women's rights activists - against all odds - remain committed in the midst of armed violence. This is the book we need to understand what is happening to our world." -- Cover page 4
