Gender and Private Security in Global Politics

For two hundred years the provision of military security has been a central and defining function of the modern nation-state. The increasing reliance on private military and security companies in contemporary conflict marks a fundamental transformation in the organization of military violence, and it raises issues of accountability and ethics that are of particular concern to feminists. This privatization of force not only enables states to circumvent citizens'' democratic control over questions of war and peace, but also undermines women''s and minority groups'' claims for greater inclusion in the military sphere. Gender and Private Security in Global Politics brings together key scholars from the fields of international relations, security studies, and gender studies to argue that privatization of military security is a deeply gendered process. The chapters employ a variety of feminist perspectives, including critical, postcolonial, poststructuralist, and queer feminist perspectives, as well as a wide range of methodological approaches including ethnography, participant-observation, genealogy, and discourse analysis. This is the first book to develop an extended feminist analysis of private militaries and to draw on feminist concerns regarding power, justice and equality to consider how to reform and regulate private forces.

Militarizing Men
Gender, Conscription, and War in Post-Soviet Russia

A state's ability to maintain mandatory conscription and wage war rests on the idea that a "real man" is one who has served in the military. Yet masculinity has no inherent ties to militarism. The link between men and the military, argues Maya Eichler, must be produced and reproduced in order to fill the ranks, engage in combat, and mobilize the population behind war. In the context of Russia's post-communist transition and the Chechen wars, men's militarization has been challenged and reinforced. Eichler uncovers the challenges by exploring widespread draft evasion and desertion, anti-draft and anti-war activism led by soldiers' mothers, and the general lack of popular support for the Chechen wars. However, the book also identifies channels through which militarized gender identities have been reproduced. Eichler's empirical and theoretical study of masculinities in international relations applies for the first time the concept of "militarized masculinity," developed by feminist IR scholars, to the case of Russia.

Тщательному анализу подвергнуты сложные взаимоотношения между тремя основными участниками конфликта: Соединенными Штатами, Советским Союзом и Японией. В книге автор показывает, что Сталин был активным участником драмы под названием «Капитуляция Японии», а вовсе не находился на второстепенных ролях, как ранее полагали историки. Также в ней дается более полная картина того, при каких обстоятельствах было принято решение об атомных бомбардировках Японии. Наконец, в этой книге описывается бурная деятельность, проводившаяся Сталиным между 15 августа, когда Япония согласилась на безоговорочную капитуляцию, и 5 сентября, когда завершилась операция советских войск на Курилах. Книга предназначена как историкам, так и всем интересующимся периодом Второй мировой войны и международными отношениями в целом.
