最近在国际关系方面的贡献将具体化,经验和情感置于他们对战争分析的中心。认识到战争应该“从人而不是从扫走血、泪和笑声的地方向上研究”(西尔维斯特,2012:484),我扩展了这一目标,通过挪威在阿富汗的军事回忆录分析体现和经验。这些都是相关的经验,不一定是因为他们的竞争的政治目标或提供政策建议,但因为这些体现叙事,受特定的性别观念的“战士阳刚之气”和维京海盗神话,可以困扰挪威的公共叙事。通过关注回忆录如何构建战斗的感官体验,我认为,这些使我们能够推动体现和经验的概念理解。回忆录展示了战争是如何被体验为快乐和痛苦的集合,以及这是如何陷入个人和集体军事化身体的复杂模糊之中的。分析战争的痛苦和快乐是如何通过身体和身体之间的意义,使我们能够推进使用的体现作为一个概念在国际关系中,反过来离开学科更好地了解战争的复杂体现组装。
Recent contributions within international relations place embodiment, experience and emotion at the centre of their analysis of war. Recognizing that war should be ‘studied up from people and not down from places that sweep blood, tears and laughter away’ (Sylvester, 2012: 484), I extend this aim to analyse embodiment and experience through Norwegian military memoirs from Afghanistan. These are relevant empirically not necessarily because they contest political aims or offer policy recommendations, but because of how these embodied narratives, influenced by particular gendered conceptions of ‘warrior masculinity’ and Viking mythology, can trouble Norwegian public narratives. Through focusing on how memoirs construct the sensory experience of combat, I argue that these enable us to push conceptual understandings of embodiment and experience. Memoirs show how war is experienced as an assemblage of pleasure and pain, and how this is caught up in complex blurrings of individual and collective militarized bodies. Analysing how the pain and pleasure of war is made sense of through and between bodies allows us to advance the usage of embodiment as a concept in international relations, in turn leaving the discipline better equipped to understand war’s complex embodied assemblages.
