Sinopsis

A feminist interrogation of how terrorism is constructed as a violence that upsets the order of international politics. This book looks at how gender, race, and heteronormative expectations of public life shape Western understandings of terrorism as irrational, immoral and illegitimate. It looks at the profiles of eight well-known terrorist actors, looking for gendered, racial, and sexualised assumptions in how their stories are told. Additionally, it interrogates how the current counterterrorism focus upon radicalisation is another way of constructing terrorists outside of the Western ideal. Finally, the book argues that mainstream Terrorism Studies must contend with the growing misogynist and racialised violence against women.
