Analysis of the ways in which America uses gender, race, class, nationalism and imperialism to justify, legitimate and continue war. Included topics are: the implications of an imperial nation/state laying claim to women's liberation: the relation between this claim and resulting American foreign policy and military action: American intervention and invasion and the liberation for women in Afghanistan and Iraq: the multiple concepts that are embedded in the phrase 'women¹s liberation': the ways in which the are connected to religion, culture, history, economics, and nation within current conflicts: the relation between the lives of Afghan and Iraqi women before and after invasion, and that of women living in the US: ways in which women who define themselves as feminists resist or acquiesce to this nation/state claim in current theory and organizing.
