Summary:The handbook is a reference work of thirty-two essays jointly written by specialists in the history of military and war and experts in gender and women's history. The collection, covering four centuries from the Thirty Years' War to the present Wars of Globalization, investigates how gender contributed to the shaping of warfare and the military and was at the same time transformed by them. The essays explore this question by focusing on themes such as the cultural representations of military and war; war mobilization of and war support by society; war experiences on the home fronts and battlefronts; gendered war violence; military service and citizenship; war demobilization, postwar societies, and memories; and attempts to regulate and tame warfare and prevent new wars
