| Description | This chapter presents an overview of the contemporary relationships between gender and global politics. It begins with a conceptual discussion of gender as a dichotomous power relation and normative ordering power, referred to as the power of gender, a meta-lens that fosters dichotomization, stratification, and depoliticization in thought and action through the processes of masculinization and feminization. The chapter presents how gender politics became more salient in national and international policymaking in recent decades is raised. A gender lens reveals the political nature of gender as a system of difference construction, hierarchical dichotomy production, and norms enforcement that constitutes virtually all contemporary societies. Instead, gender analysis must adopt intersectional analysis to make sense of our multiple, crosscutting, and differentially valorized identities. Gendered and gender divisions of violence are deeply implicated in these multiple aspects of the crisis of security. The chapter also presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in this book.
