性别角色在战争中最为突出。然而，有争议的辩论，以及各学科之间的学术分散，掩盖了对性别如何影响战争的理解，反之亦然。在这个权威和生动的审查我们的知识状态，约书亚戈尔茨坦评估了可能的解释，几乎完全排除妇女从战斗部队，通过历史和跨文化。所涵盖的主题包括妇女的历史谁打了，打得很好，睾丸激素在男性的社会行为的复杂作用，以及建设的男性和女性在战争的阴影。戈尔茨坦的结论是，战争中的杀戮对任何一种性别来说都不是自然而然的，性别规范往往会根据战争体系的需要塑造男人、女人和儿童。插图与照片，图纸，图形，并从奖学金跨越六个学科绘图，这本书提供了一个迷人的问题的独特研究。
Gender roles are nowhere more prominent than in war. Yet contentious debates, and the scattering of scholarship across academic disciplines, have obscured understanding of how gender affects war and vice versa. In this authoritative and lively review of our state of knowledge, Joshua Goldstein assesses the possible explanations for the near-total exclusion of women from combat forces, through history and across cultures. Topics covered include the history of women who did fight and fought well, the complex role of testosterone in men's social behaviours, and the construction of masculinity and femininity in the shadow of war. Goldstein concludes that killing in war does not come naturally for either gender, and that gender norms often shape men, women, and children to the needs of the war system. lllustrated with photographs, drawings, and graphics, and drawing from scholarship spanning six academic disciplines, this book provides a unique study of a fascinating issue.
