Feminist studies of nationalism also envision women as either victimized by patriarchy within nationalist movements or as adopting masculine qualities to conform to the culture of their male compatriots. Jacoby takes an alternative approach, considering how women are situated across the political spectrum. She argues that when categories other than gender - such as class, ethnicity, religion, and political perspective - are considered, there is no single perspective on what it means to be a woman in conflict.WomenPolitical activityIsraelSex discrimination against womenIsraelWomen and warIsraelWar and societyIsraelWomenPolitical activitySex discrimination against womenWomen and warWar and society305.4209569489.62bclJacoby Tami Amanda800706MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782181103321Women in zones of conflict3760955UNINA
