Enloe outlines the dilemmas feminists around the globe face in trying to craft theories and strategies that support militerized women, locally and internationally, without unwittingly being militerized themselves.
How do they militarize a can of soup? -- Laundress, the soldier, and the state -- Prostitute, the colonel, and the nationalist -- When soldiers rape -- If a woman is "married to the military," who is the husband? -- Nursing the military: the imperfect management of respectability -- Filling the ranks: militarizing women as mothers, soldiers, feminists, and fashion designers.
