Reviews
'... a tantalizing read that teases the reader into critical reflection about feminist theory and IR theory as much through its style as through its substantive claims. Most of all, it provokes the reader through its refusal to assert any definitive conclusion about what feminism brings to IR or IR to feminism. The book is more than an intellectual autobiography (though it certainly is that) - it also a serious contribution to the ongoing dialogue between feminist and IR theory.'Ethics and International Affairs, "Christine Sylvester's enormous versatility as a scholar is evident in this compilation of her many essays...Feminist International Relations is an important book for students of IR, not only because it brings together in one place [her] many writings, but also because it pushes scholars of IR to reckon with the enormous fecundity of feminist approaches and their ability to open up new ways of 'sighting,' 'siting,' and 'citing.' She is a bold and imaginative thinker and writer, and her feminist interventions in IR challenge a field in which 'a conversation, to say nothing of a debate, on gender and IR has simply not occupied any center stage.'" Perspectives on Politics, "For the patient patient and the initiated, the collection provides insight on how a feminist approach to international relations developed (although omitting a number of important works) and what methods might usefully advance the approach. Recommended for graduate and research collections."
