Reviews for Nimo´s War, Emma´s War: Making Feminist Sense of the Iraq War
"Stories help illustrate how gendered politics change over the course of a war and how this thing we call war itself changes over time." Ms. Magazine "Enloe's new work is a great addition to her oeuvre on women, militarism and consumer culture in international perspective."
