Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two decades ago, V. Spike Peterson published a book titled Gendered States in which she asked, what difference does gender make in international relations and the construction of the sovereign state system? This book aims to connect the earlier debates of Peterson's book with the gendered state today, one that exists within a globalized and increasingly securitized world. Including scholars from International Relations, Postcolonial Studies, and DevelopmentStudies, this volume examines the various ways in which gender explains the construction and interplay of modern states in international relations and global politics (4e de couverture).
