The seminar introduces students to the feminist perspectives in International Relations. A particular focus will be placed on intersectional feminist theory and critical approaches to security, war, and militarism. The aim of the seminar is to get a better understanding of the role played by gender in armed conflict and to investigate how binary constructions intersects with other systems of power such as race, colonialism and capitalism. It questions how these understandings affect our understanding of and response to war – as citizen, as spectator, as scholar and as practitioner.
Lecturer: Morgane Desoutter
