Joyce P. Kaufman is professor of political science and director
of the Center for Engagement with Communities at Whittier
College.
Kristen P. Williams is associate professor of government and
international relations at Clark University.
In this timely and accessible book, Kaufman and Williams merge
mainstream questions and feminist frameworks to advance the
insights of both. Their comparative study deepens our knowledge of
citizenship and nationalism as gendered, and demonstrates the
political salience of feminist inquiry.

Recommended.
*Choice Reviews*
The analytical work itself is largely both compelling and
convincing. For students of gender, violence and the State, this
text offers an accessible overview of feminist literature on
nationalism.
*International Feminist Journal of Politics*
Kaufman and Williams rightly observe that with the rise of
nationalism, protection for women's rights declined....I would
recommend the book as very informative and for bringing attention
to women's continuous struggles for equal rights....Kaufman and
Williams also succeed in establishing the role of women's activism
in the context of war and open conficts.

I would recommend this book as very informative and for bringing
attention to women's continuous struggles for equal rights….
Kaufman and Williams also succeed in establishing the role of
women's activism even in the context of war and open conflicts.
*WSQ: Women's Studies Quarterly*
With their superb combining of IR theory and careful case studies,
Kaufman and Williams reveal how state elites have relied on the
manipulations of "mixed marriages" to exclude certain women from
nationalist-defined citizenship - and how so many women have
organized to resist that exclusion and the militarism that it
foments.
