Two decades ago, V. Spike Peterson published a book titled Gendered States in which she asked, what difference does gender make in international relations and the construction of the sovereign state system? This book aims to connect the earlier debates of Peterson’s book with the gendered state today, one that exists within a globalized and increasingly securitized world.
