本章从军嫂的角度考察海外军事基地的社会空间动态。基于对居住在德国的英国陆军人员配偶的人种学研究，它探索了军事权力的微观政治，以评估受试者在日常生活中感知和理解军事权力的复杂方式。这一章探讨了妻子与制度的关系可能被理解的叙事和实践。它质疑这些多重且往往相互矛盾的配置可能意味着什么，关于妇女机构及其作为军事化主体和代理人的模棱两可的地位--有时在社会等级制度中参与其流通，有时积极重新谈判或化解其影响。性别的复杂且往往相互矛盾的力量被视为改变和拉拢对妇女日常生活的体制控制的催化剂。
This chapter considers the socio-spatial dynamics of a military base overseas from the perspective of Army wives. Based on ethnographic research with the spouses of British Army personnel living in Germany, it explores the micropolitics of military power to assess the intricate ways in which it is sensed and understood by subjects in their everyday lives. The chapter explores narratives and practices through which wives’ relationship to the institution might be understood. It questions what these multiple and often contradictory configurations might indicate about women’s agency and their ambiguous status as both subjects and agents of militarisation – sometimes complicit in its circulation through social hierarchies, sometimes active in renegotiating or defusing its effects. The complex and often contradictory power of gender is seen as a catalyst for the conversion and co-optation of institutional control over women’s everyday lives.
