The Curious Feminist

This book belongs in FemRes because it brings war, security, and state violence back from abstract diplomacy into gender, labor, race, colonialism, and everyday life. For readers, it shows how militarism enters homes, factories, borders, media narratives, peace operations, and international law, not only battlefields. The book is valuable because it turns curiosity into a research ethic: ask where women are, who benefits from not noticing them, and what changes when they are taken seriously.

It is especially useful alongside FemRes topics on Feminist Security Studies, War and Peace, Militarism, Anti-Sexual Violence, Nationalism, and Decolonial Feminism.
