Twelve Feminist Lessons of War
Renowned scholar-activist Cynthia Enloe lays out the lessons that women activists have drawn from their immediate experiences of war.
Twelve Feminist Lessons of War draws on firsthand experiences of war from women in places as diverse as Ukraine, Myanmar, Somalia, Vietnam, Rwanda, Algeria, Syria, and Northern Ireland to show how women's wars are not men's wars. With her engaging trademark style, Cynthia Enloe demonstrates how patriarchy and militarism have embedded themselves in our institutions and our personal lives.
Enloe reveals how the social and political influences that shape war—from military recruitment and economic collapse to sexual assault and reproductive rights (and their denial)—are deeply gendered and pervade women's lives before, during, and in the aftermath of war. Her razor-sharp analysis, at once accessible and provocative, highlights how women's emotional and physical labor is used to support government policies and how women's rights activists—against all odds—remain committed in the midst of armed violence. Twelve Feminist Lessons of War is the gritty and grounded book we need to understand what is happening to our world.

This book annoyed me. There's research on various women's experiences connected to the war and I learned some new things mainly about African countries and the Middle East. However, most of the research related to Ukraine focused only on a small part of the Ukrainian feminist movement. The problems of Russian feminists and their "struggle" during the war that their country started are given the light.
The main thing that I found controversial is the view that feminism is about peacemaking. And the desire of women to defend their country is mentioned as a circumstance, a sort of brainwashing wave of militarization. That is a privileged view of the world from someone who never lived in war conditions. And it devalues the work of women in the army or volunteers.

Excellent book. Extremely informative. I have typically stayed away from the topics of war and military due to disinterest and how disheartening it is, but this book is absolutely essential to read. Even if you object to war, it greatly changes the world and militarization has infiltrated so many aspects of society.
My notes:
1. Women’s wars are not men’s wars
* Women are portrayed as crying over dead husbands and sons or over the loss of their homes. They are rarely portrayed as having full lives.
* Many countries have laws in place on who goes to war, and who is expected to stay home. Countries additionally, have laws about women needing men’s permission and require them to be responsible for the children.
* A woman’s war starts before any shots are fired. And those pre-war times, a woman’s condition is created that will shape how she experiences the war. A woman’s war starts when as a girl she’s taken out of school, needs to help her mother collect water, when the laws pass that she can legally marry at 13, when she is dismissed for her charges of wife battering as trivial.
2. Every war is fought in gendered history.
* Those who earn and control money make the wartime decisions. This was often not women.
* In many countries, women aren’t allowed jobs, they can not read, and can not not do anything, including listening to a radio, without the permission of a male.
* Systematic wartime rape was used as a weapon of war. Dismissive comments such as “boys will be boys” is inaccurate and downplays the abhorrent acts.
* Women don’t “belong” to anyone. Some man’s honor is not what is injured by men’s wartime rape of “his” woman. Women who have endured sexual violence in war are citizens in their own right; they are humans deserving reparations, justice, and political voice.
3. Getting men to fight isn’t so easy
* Russian men flees military service when Putin ordered them to the Ukraine war. This reminded us that joining a military isn’t seen by all men as their ticket to unassailable manliness.
* Military personnel focuses on the women partners, but not so much the male partners, of soldiers to except and privately manage the stressors and expectations of militarized marriage.
* Wives can be dismissed but mothers make military superiors nervous as they typically carry much more cultural weight.
4. Women as soldiers is not liberation
* Women have been used for war efforts and have shown to be critical, such as Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole have shown, but have often but refused acceptance into the formal military or in roles deemed too masculine.
* During WWII, women were taken on to do more jobs but only “for the duration”.
* No military has an equal amount of men and women, most are nowhere near close. This isn’t generally seen as a major issue though and most feminists usually prioritize other issues instead of raising women’s equality within the military.
* Three questions are being asked by feminist to make sense of male soldiers’ sexual violence against women soldiers. 1) Are sexually abusive military men using violence to signal to women that they do not belong in a privilege masculinized space, “invading” a space they consider their own? 2) What is behind the systemic refusal of so many senior male military officers to take violence against women inside the military seriously? 3) How should feminists go about listening to women who have been abused or intimidated in order to devise the most effective and fair strategies of response?
* Women in the military seemed politically comprising, but it’s filled with sexual harassment and abuse, for women in the US military to Global South peacekeeping. At their core, militaries remain patriarchal institutions.
5. Women as armed insurgents offer feminist caveats
* Many women insurgents (aka revolutionaries, freedom fighters) have taken up arms to defend their country from colonialism, autocratic regimes, etc. but then find then find their fighting still resulted in a patriarchal post-insurgency state.
* If what a woman does is defined as just acting according to her “natural” femininity — such as carrying food over long distances or harboring armed fighters — then that woman and her contribution can be minimalized, trivialized, unrewarded, and swept under history’s rug.
* One of the hardest, gender lessons that has been crafted by women and surgeons over the past 70 years is this: do not rely on the promise that achieving some other goal — ending in colonial rule, ending racialized supremacy, outing in autocrat — will automatically bring with at the end of masculinized privileged patriarchy.
6. Wounds matter — wounds are gendered
* Women are the unpaid caregivers to both wounded soldiers and wounded civilians.
7. Make wartime rape visible
* By becoming respectfully, patiently curious about women’s experiences of sexual violence in war, and naming and holding accountable the rapists and their enablers, women’s rights during and after wars can be effectively secured.
* One must be respectful and take care when asking women to talk to investigators about their ordeals in painful deal — and this takes a great deal of time and patience. You have to earn their trust first, some may never give it.
* Rape is a serious crime and must be taken seriously as an individual act of war. Systemic rape is a weapon of war and not merely an unimportance consequence that happens in “the fog of war”, which it is most comply placed down as.
8. Feminists organize while war is raging
* Feminists are always hard at work! Whether at war or during “peacetime”.
9. “Post war” can last generations
* “Later” is a patriarchal time zone. Women have to act now to promote change and be given their rights or post war will push towards, a typically patriarchal, “normal”.
* Rarely are transnational or local feminist invited to sit at reconstruction deal making tables. The ground-level knowledge of the complex realities of women’s lives is routinely excluded from these crucial reconstruction calculations and commitments. Things women need — like social services, a social safety net, women’s full time employment, reparations, investing corruption — are all passed over to focus on the rebuilding g the previous patriarchal structures.
10. Militarization starts during peacetime
* Militarizing effects of wildlife conservation, such as having heavy weapons to fight off poachers, have reenforced masculine ideas of being a ranger which has excluded rural women hence losing their necessary knowledge of the land and wildlife.
* Militarization is fueled by ideas. A teenage girl can be militarized is she begins to imagine a man in military uniform as an attractive mate. Or battlefield references used in sports.
* Erecting a new war memorial in a park, school textbooks skipping over a wartime atrocity, physicists imagining working for the weapons lab because it will be exciting, fashion brands creating new “camo” apparel for teens. These changes of values, desires, and beliefs occur during peacetime.
* By sharing our experiences and trading strategies, we can reverse militarized thinking.
11. Ukrainian feminists have lessons to teach us about war
* Simply being Ukrainian women doing feminist grassroots work was not by itself enough to create the level of trust required for action-committed solidarity. Building feminist solitary, when militarism is escalating can take time, long walks, and lots of coffee.
* If planners for Ukraine’s postwar reconstruction do not include feminist experts in their deliberations and fail to explicitly and effectively address the countries growing gender equality, Ukrainian women’s unequal relationships to men and the state will deepen. The peace these gender untruths men reconstruct for Ukraine will be a patriarchal peace.
* Militarization cannot produce genuine peace; a militarized peace can never deliver sustainable security to women.
12. Feminist lessons are for everyone
* Absorbing and acting on each Feminist lesson makes us all more reliable in our understandings of war. That in turn makes us more valuable as citizens — of our countries in the world.
* Feminism isn’t a club. It is an ever expanding porous net work of women and men thinking seriously about women’s complex lives, about women’s relationships, to men, to governments, and to each other. Feminism is about questioning, sharing, and exploring the workings of equity and injustice. Anyone can join in the committed wondering.
* Warning: becoming and staying feminist in one’s wondering, take stamina. Patriarchy depends on the rest of us lacking stamina, getting burned out, withdrawing into shallow, individualism, fantastical, fundamentalism, or pseudo-sophisticated cynicism.

Hmmmm. There were some good points made in this collection of related ideas but the author did not have the range to discuss global politics from an anti-colonialist viewpoint. A lot of focus was on the US and British military without ever touching on how they influenced the affected regions in the Middle East, and the feminists there, for example, as if the two topics are completely unrelated. Israel and their women soldiers were mentioned *multiple* times without ever touching on the occupation of Palestine. Feminism movements in Palestine were not mentioned at all.
I suppose it depends on what “feminism” is to the reader. I found this to be a very liberal reading of the word. Surprised it was a Left Wing Book Club pick

LATER IS A PATRIARCHAL TIMEZONE!
i think there are very important things in here- some chapters are stronger than others. i do also however think that this book could've benefitted from being longer/ more in depth- definitely more of a general audience IR read than bananas, beaches & bases, which is phenomenal. also, more of a focus on palestine/ pink washing.
HOWEVER the fact that i got to literally hear prof enloe speak in person and talk about my dissertation with her because of an event related to this book means that i am also warped by fondness.

The queen of feminist IR strikes again. Wish she unpacked the institutional implications of some of these claims a bit further but hey that’s further research for later!

A really in-depth analysis of what we forget to recognise and notice before, during, and after war relative to women's contributions.

Enloe gives us accessible perspectives on feminist lessons from wars. Published in 2023, this non-fiction is an important understanding on gender aspects to conflicts and wars (current and historical). There is a particular nuance to gender perspective in times of wars. Gender concepts are explored in this piece as concepts that are systemic, intentional and seldom officially acknowledged. Enloe traverses the difficult topics of loss, grief, illiteracy and vulnerability, each being more prevalent for girls and women. We learn about intra-military violence against women, and the barrier it creates to entry, confidence, and livelihood. We also learn of the importance of recognising that the commencement of recruitment regimes of female soldiers does not necessarily mean liberation. Misogyny remains institutionalised and allowing women to join militaries does not solve that issue. Enloe makes tricky and confronting stories digestible to the reader in an informed and clear manner whilst maintaining passion and sensitivity. Reference is made to masculinised legislatures, patriarchal military, anti-liberal and anti-autocracy movements (each through a feminist lens) to demonstrate the intersection of conflict and gender oppression.

My perspective on this is probably skewed because I'm reading it for my dissertation and it's just not of the same calabre as anything else in that category. It doesn't read like an academic book; more like something you'd find in the shelf in Indigo. Some of the lessons were very specific and insightful - like the importance of counting the wounded among casualties, and the impact of war wounds on women - but some - like the notion that women becoming soldiers does not liberate us - were very basic and barely needed to be said. The feminist analysis is also somewhat pedestrian; the position Enloe takes is a very simple "how does conflict affect women," without bringing in any advanced feminist theories. I think this book is more suited to a general audience than an academic audience.

November 25, 2024In-depth feminist look at militarization. Chapters/lessons 4, 5, & 7 were especially memorable.
"Do not rely on the promise that achieving some other goal - ending colonial rule, ending radicalized supremacy, ousting an autocrat, gaining the movement's political ascendancy, achieving national independence - will 'automatically' bring with it the end of masculinized privilege, patriarchy.....We should not rely on the achievement of a so-called 'larger' goal to automatically bring women's liberation. 'Automatically,' it turns out, is never automatic."

Enloe has written a few books on women in war. In fact, I used to use her Bananas, Bases and Beaches in one of my Women's Studies courses. She addresses the cost of war for women in many capacities: as soldiers, civilians, casualties, relatives of male soldiers and economic and psychological victims. She always writes from a feminist perspective, which I appreciate. Women in war zones are killed, raped and suffer other atrocities. In the military women also experience violence from they fellow soldiers, usually rape or sexual harassment. As commodities diminish women are supposed to care for their families but often see their children starve (or be killed in front of them). Enloe covers all of these topics and more.

This work has incredible value in developing a feminist lens and a feminist skepticism to notice and doubt the intentions of those in power. However, its normative judgements are (in my opinion) underdeveloped and largely unsupported, even though it is written as if it’s a major theme of the work. The claim that femininity is so totally contrary to militarization rings false and the work could be better by admitting its feminist-pacifist lens rather than suggesting they are one and the same.

this book presents really important discussions and elucidates the feminist movement globally Within women groups who have or are experiencing War whether as militants or as peaceniks or ex-militants become peaceniks. four stars because there's bias in the stories told those left out but this was very interesting and a great mix of academic research and reports from activist feminist movements over the last few decades. really eye-opening appreciate much

Excellent. Main idea is that millitarism is bad, and also it is important to pay close attention to how war affects women in all aspects of life. Very clear arguments with examples around the world. I found the questions to challenge millitirized thinking especially useful.
October 25, 2025
I don't know how it's possible to have this much experience writing stuff and still be so bad at it. This is so poorly written. I tried multiple chapters and dnfd all of them. The preface was the best part.

Tää oli törkeen hyvä! Tykkäsin laajasta globaalista otteesta ja selkeästä tutkimustiedon käytöstä. Tää olis kelle tahansa hyvää luettavaa militarisoitumisesta ja sen sukupuolittuneisuudesta ja vaikutuksista meihin kaikkiin :)

Enloe is a genius. Believe this book will firmly become part of the post-colonial feminist political canon - an utterly brilliant, seminal reading. (Dissertation theoretical context)

Amazing book - definitely gave me a lot to think about both as a feminist and someone who is interested in warring and the military.
