Since its exuberant re-emergence in the 1960s and 1970s, feminism has explicitly claimed to be corrective and transformative and with the exponential growth in feminist scholarship, its success has been anticipated and expected. However, given the ongoing significant and frequently violent impact of international practices associated with gender for both men and women, the promise of feminism remains elusive.This book examines whether feminism has succeeded in transforming International Relations. Marysia Zalewski assesses what feminist theories offer to the disciplinary study of international politics and explores feminism's relationship with the mainstream study of International Relations, particularly the quest to find a middle ground which would satisfy the institutional needs of the discipline of IR and those of feminism. This book:Provides a critical review of the ways in which feminism aimed to deliver on its inaugural transformative promises in the field of International Relations.Evaluates the impact of the succession of critical challenges from masculinity studies, poststructuralism, critical race theory and queer theory to feminist scholarship in International Relations.Analyses how feminist work has impacted on the institutional study of international politics.Questions about the potential for feminist transformation remain consistently important to scholars who engage with international politics, whether feminist or not. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of International Politics, International Studies, Globalization Studies, Gender Studies and Political Theory.
