Gender and private security in global politics
In: Oxford studies in gender and international relations
This volume not only argues that security privatisation cannot be fully grasped without a consideration of gender, but presents a framework for studying security privatisation from a critical gender perspective that emphasises intersectionality, multiple scales, and the political nature of PMSCs. Collectively, the chapters in this book demonstrate that gender, in intersection with citizenship, national identity, race, class, and sexuality, is shaped by, at the same time as it helps constitute, the practices of PMSCs and their employees along with public perceptions of PMSCs
