Making War on Bodies

Editat de Catherine Baker
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 mar 2020
Combining perspectives on aesthetics and embodiment to understand militarism in international politics This vibrant collection of essays reveals the intimate politics of how people with a wide range of relationships to war identify with, and against, the military and its gendered and racialised norms. The volume synthesises three recent turns in the study of international politics: aesthetics, embodiment and the everyday, into a new conceptual framework for understanding how militarism permeates society and how far its practices can be re-appropriated or even turned against it. Through a range of case studies covering 20th- and 21st-century conflicts on four different continents, the authors of this collection provide a vital introduction to three current concepts in international politics research. Key Features: - Illustrates how processes of militarisation operate in the continuum between military institutions and everyday civilian life - Case studies range from the Middle East and post-socialist Europe to the USA, Britain, Australia and Cuba - Offers diverse methodological examples including autoethnography, visual analysis, fashion history, and digital media research - Integrates social identities including race, sexual orientation, gender identity and disability Catherine Baker is Senior Lecturer in 20th Century History at the University of Hull.
