Global Gender Politics: From Invisibility to Hyper-Visibility

Dra. Anne Sisson Runyan

University of Cincinnati, Estados Unidos

This keynote addresses the past, present, and future of global gender politics inquiry derived largely from six editions of what is presently entitled Global Gender Politics, which I have authored or co-authored since 1993. Beginning life under the title of Global Gender Issues co-authored with V. Spike Peterson, it was among the first scholarly theorizations and surveys of and widely used texts for the study of feminist International Relations (IR). Over various permutations accompanied by some title changes (to Global Gender Issues in the New Millenium followed by Global Gender Politics). changes in authorship (Peterson and Runyan for the first three editions, Runyan and Peterson for the fourth, Runyan for the fifth, and now Runyan, Mhajne, Whetstone, and Yilmaz for the forthcoming sixth), and publisher changes (from Westview Press to Routledge), it has tracked advances in and setbacks to taking gender seriously in field of IR and world politics practices. In the process, it shifted from hypothesizing why gender as an analytic was so absent in IR theory and practice to critiquing how it has been taken up so problematically by state and intergovernmental institutions in the neoliberal era and now becoming a central target with the rise of (neo)authoritarian regimes and politics.
