Gender in International Relations

J. Ann Tickner is professor of international relations at the University of Southern California.

• Engendered insecurities; man, the state and war - gendered perspectives on national security; three models of man - gendered perspectives on global economy security; man over nature - gendered perspectives on ecological security; toward a nongendered perspective on global security.

Tickner's stimulating challenge can be disputed, but it is too well considered and thoughtful to ignore. Gender in International Relations is likely to begin a productive debate involving international relations scholars, feminist thinkers, and others concerned about security in the most inclusive sense.
