Zusammenfassung:
'The Face of the Nation' studies women's leadership and gender relations across some of the worst performing and most male-dominated spheres of state - international affairs. Exploring the stories from almost 80 global women leaders, as well as institutional histories and policies across diplomacy, defense, national security, policing, and intelligence, this book seeks to understand why women remain under-represented on the global stage, despite many changing social and policy norms. Using Australia as a leading case study, the book extends theories on gender and international institutions to understand the gendered, racialized, and heteronormative structures that continue to limit and impact on diverse women's leadership and participation internationally.
