Unravelling the Militarism Package: Feminist Analysis and Resistance

Listen to the audio paper in Ukrainian

Militarism is a package of multiple ideas. Many of those ideas that the militarism package is comprised of are ideas about what it means to be “manly”, what one has to do to be seen as a “respectable woman”. Challenge one of those militarized gender ideas and you can start to unravel the entire militarism package... We cannot really understand the full package of militarism and its popular appeal unless we start asking explicitly feminist questions about the package. (Translation into Ukrainian)
