War Stories and Camouflaged Politics
Redaktion: Hunt, Krista

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

As the war on terror spreads and deepens, it is more important than ever to examine how diverse international actors are using the war on terror as an opportunity to reinforce existing gendered, raced, classed and sexualized inter/national relations. This book examines the official war stories about why and against whom the war on terror is being waged.
