The essays in the book establish links between political ideology, history, psychology, cultural studies, cinema, literature, and gender studies and addresses questions such as— what is the role of women in war or military conflicts beyond the well-studied victimization? Can the often contradictory expectations of women and their traditional roles be (re)thought and (re)constructed? How do cultural representations of women during war times reveal conflicting desires and poke holes in the ideological apparatus of the state and society?Cultural representation of Slavic and Balkan women in warWomen and warBalkan PeninsulaWomen and warSlavic countriesWomen in mass mediaWar in mass mediaFilm, Gender studies, Literature, Media, Political violence, Women, Women and war, World War II.Women and warWomen and warWomen in mass media.War in mass media.355.02082Hashamova Yana866363Goscilo Helena1945-880358MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK996248270703316Embracing Arms2381232UNISA
