"The Routledge History of Gender, War, and the US Military is the first examination of the interdisciplinary, intersecting fields of gender studies and the history of the United States military. In twenty-one original essays, the contributors tackle themes including gendering the 'other', gender and war disability, gender and sexual violence, gender and American foreign relations, and veterans and soldiers in the public imagination, and lay out a chronological examination of gender and America's wars from the American Revolution to Iraq. This important collection is essential reading for all those interested in how the military has influenced America's views and experiences of gender."--Provided by publisher

In recent years, there has been a growing anti-feminist, conservative movement across many parts of the world known as the anti-gender movement. This movement has been especially strong in Central Eastern Europe, where anti-gender actors have framed 'gender' as a static, foreign concept imported from 'the West' and destructive to 'traditional' societies. Utilising a postcolonial feminist approach, I examine the concept of 'gender' in Czechia, drawing attention to the role played by Czech academics, activists and policymakers in negotiating the use of the term 'gender'. This article traces the history of the term from the 1990s when 'gender' was first introduced to a Czech academic audience, through public seminars and lectures hosted by the Prague Gender Studies Centre, to the present-day inclusion of gender mainstreaming discourse in Czech policy documents. I reveal that 'gender' is not a timeless, clearly defined, fixed term wholly imported from 'the West' but rather a concept with a variable and complicated history. Thus, this crucial term, first developed in Anglo-academia, is not uncontested or uncritically accepted, contrary to the claims made by anti-gender actors. The findings presented in this article hold implications critical to transnational feminist dialogue and activism during the current period of growing global anti-feminist sentiment.

Abstract: The goal of this article is to conceptualize a decolonial understanding of an Indian genderqueerness, trying to contest the false temporal binaries of coloniality and postcoloniality. Tracing India's complex and rich queer and genderqueer history preceding British colonization, I dissect the impact of colonization on postcolonial transphobia and understandings of trans. Through a historical literature review and media content analysis of the controversial film The Pink Mirror (2003), I apply a decolonial lens to reimagine locally produced narratives of queerness and genderqueerness through local genderqueer communities, such as Hijras and Kothis.

Although most political theories imply some view of the role of emotion in political life, some are hostile to emotion; & no general treatment of the emotional has yet been written in normative political theory. The theoretical study of political emotion should begin with the history of ancient Greek thumos as understood by Homer, who wrote free of the philosophical elevation of reason. Recent theorists have understood thumos as the angry & manly defense of one's own honor, family, & country. In Homer's Iliad, thumos motivates both men & women, participates in deliberation, & suggests not one disposition or emotion, but many emotions. The typical readings of ancient thumos neglect these elements in Homer, & fail to investigate the relationship between political regime & emotion. Employing recent studies of emotion, I articulate the mutual effect of political organizations, morality, & emotional character focusing particularly on the story of Achilles. 83 References.
