Mapping Feminist International Relations in South Asia: Past and Present

Editat de Shweta Singh, Amena Mohsin
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 dec 2024
This book provides a comprehensive overview of feminist international relations in South Asia. It highlights the key contentions, debates, and tensions in the field, and studies how the trajectory of feminist international relations in the region has been marked by dialogue, dissidence, and difference with the Global North. In doing so, the volume draws attention to different feminist histories, herstories, and differing ways of knowing, seeing, and doing global politics. It particularly foregrounds a feminist intersectional/ postcolonial lens to a diverse range of issues such as women, peace and the security agenda, populism and nationalism, militarism and militarisation, and underlines the rich textured contours of feminist epistemologies in South Asia.
 
An important contribution, the book will be of great interest to scholars, teachers, and students of feminism, international relations, postcolonialism, women's studies, gender studies, security studies, and South Asian studies.

Recenzii

“This unique and layered collection reveals the distinct South Asian feminist conceptualizations of international relations and its components. Essays theorize feminist contributions on aspects of foreign policy, conflict, power and inter community relations in specific South Asian countries. Path breaking essays excavate how women have advised on the criticality of negotiations, leveraging interests and compromise during key power struggles in medieval and ancient India, that authoritatively show that while feminism may be an aspect of modernity, women’s contribution to the understanding of state and power relations are embedded in South Asian history. This book makes significant contribution to knowledge by uncovering the debt of contemporary international relations to the hitherto hidden contribution of women and feminists in the understanding of the constituent elements of international relations.”

“A pioneering work on Feminist International Relations in South Asia, this volume expertly weaves together cross-cutting themes central to the feminist agenda: feminist knowledge production, WPS, gendered populism, nationalism, and militarization. A must-read for anyone interested in feminist IR and gender in South Asia.”
 
Keshab Giri, Lecturer in International Relations, School of International Relations, University of St Andrews, Scotland, UK and Research Fellow, Women and Public Policy Program, Harvard Kennedy School
 
“This volume makes an outstanding contribution to the field of Feminist International Relations. The editors have brought together an impressive group of South Asian feminist scholars who offer innovative and critical insights across a range of issues at the heart of the Feminist IR agenda.”
 
Monika Barthwal-Datta, Senior Lecturer in International Security at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney, Australia
 
 
“Mapping first and second generation South Asian feminist scholarship, this important collection takes place and space seriously, considering not only how geography and epistemology are intertwined but also how global issues and events are apprehended and understood in the region. The volume features compelling contributions from leading scholars and is a must-read both for anyone wishing to understand the dynamics of gendered politics and power in South Asia and for those seeking to further their knowledge of debates in feminist IR more broadly.”
 
 Laura J. Shepherd, Professor of International Relations, School of Social and Political Sciences, The University of Sydney, Australia
