Feminist International Relations: 'Exquisite Corpse'
Feminist International Relations: 'Exquisite Corpse' will be of interest to students and scholars of International Politics, Gender and Feminist Studies, International Studies, Political Theory, Globalization Studies and further afield. To Be Published 25th March 2013 by Routledge.
This book offers a contemporary intervention in the field of
feminism/international relations. Partly inspired by Surrealism, the
book is written in a series of vignettes and draws on a variety of
approaches inviting readers in to inhabit the text. It is a politically
engaged book, though one which does not direct readers in conventional
ways, visiting global politics, the classroom, poetry, institutional
violence, cartoons, feminist violence, films, violent white men, angry
black women, blood and ‘English’ puddings. Working imaginatively with
epistemology and methodology, and embedding theory throughout the text,
the book can be considered part of the current genre of scholarship
which attends to complexity, uncertainty, disruption, affect and the
creative possibilities of randomness.
