Books in the OXF STUDIES GENDER INTL RELATIONS SERIES series

Global health security, focused on short-term response efforts, fails to consider the differential impacts of outbreaks on women. Feminist Global Health Security highlights the ways in which women are disadvantaged by global health security policy, through engagement with feminist international relations concepts of visibility, social and stratified reproduction, intersectionality, and structural violence. Wenham ultimately asks, what would global healthpolicy look like if it were to take gender seriously, and how would this impact global disease control?

The Women, Peace and Security agenda has developed over the past two decades, anchored in-but far exceeding-a series of resolutions adopted by the UN Security Council that address gender and the governance of peace and conflict. This book presents an analysis of the emergence of the WPS agenda as a knowable policy object, applying narrative and discourse theory to a dataset of publicly available documents published over the past two decades, and original interviewswith people working on and around the WPS agenda at the United Nations Headquarters in New York.
