  Book Description
  Publication Date: April 11, 2011
  Virginia Woolf famously wrote 'as a woman I have no
country', suggesting that women had little stake in defending countries where they are considered second-class citizens,
and should instead be forces for peace. Yet women have been perpetrators as well as victims of violence in nationalist
conflicts. This unique book generates insights into the role of gender in nationalist violence by examining feature
films from a range of conflict zones. In The Battle of Algiers, female bombers destroy civilians while men dress in
women's clothes to prevent the French army from capturing and torturing them. Prisoner of the Mountains shows a Chechen
girl falling in love with her Russian captive as his mother tries to rescue him. Providing historical and political
context to these and other films, Matthew Evangelista identifies the key role that economic decline plays in threatening
masculine identity and provoking the misogynistic violence that often accompanies nationalist wars.
  
  Reviews
  "A genuinely innovative contribution to the
currently intense discussion about the gendered militarization of nationalism. Matthew Evangelista reveals how even
serious international filmmakers often unwittingly reinforce wartime patriarchal norms while breaking cinematic
conventions."- Cynthia Enloe, Clark University and author of Nimo's War, Emma's War: Making
Feminist Sense of the Iraq War (2010)
  
  "Matthew Evangelista has written an extraordinary book
that transcends disciplinary boundaries to explore and explain the role of gender in nationalist violence. His approach
is a challenge to normal political science and demonstrates what can be learned when imagination is applied to
unconventional sources like movies. Taking emblematic films that depict the anti-colonial, civil, and ethnic wars in
Algeria, Yugoslavia, Chechnya, and Quebec, Evangelista relates violence to threats to masculinity, the inequalities
experienced by women, and the ambitions of nationalists. As horrific as the events depicted are, the author does not
despair but indicates possible ways to avoid such sanguinary occasions in the future."-
Ronald Grigor Suny, Charles Tilly Collegiate Professor of Social and Political History and Director of the Eisenberg
Institute for Historical Studies, The University of Michigan
  
  Book
Description II
  In an age of female suicide bombers, comfortable assumptions about the peaceful nature
of women have become questionable. This book explores the relationship between gender and nationalist violence by
examining feature films from zones of conflict around the world, including the 1966 classic, The Battle of Algiers.
