Publisher description
Gender is widely recognized as an important and useful lens for the study of International Relations (IR). However, there are few books that specifically investigate masculinity/ies in relation to world politics. Taking a feminist-inspired understanding of gender as its starting point, the book: * explains that gender is both an asymmetrical binary and a hierarchy; * shows how masculinization works via 'nested hierarchies' of domination and subordination; * explores the imbrication of masculinities with the nation-state and great power politics; * develops an understanding of the arms trade with commercial processes of militarisation
