Assignment:

So we have been asked to do war report on a contemporary war or conflict that examines this conflict through one of the approaches to the study of war we have done - so I have picked gendering war and my war is the Ukraine war.

How can I answer these following questions in detail?

1. What are some Core actors and/or core forces/causes of the Ukraine war, especially as related to my approach to gendering war/gender? (e.g. an approach focusing on gender would want to highlight masculinities/femininities, embodiment, etc).

2. What is the narrative of this war (Ukraine war)? So the key events, framed through the approach I have chosen which is gendering war/gender?

3. What are some consequences of the war (Ukraine war) connected to the approach I have chosen so gendering war/gender?

4. Reflection on this question: What is the particular approach to the study of war I have selected (gendering war/gender) and how does it shape how we understand this war (Ukraine war)?

For the last reflection question use references:
