Hubbard-Hall C: Her Secret Service / B

Her Secret Service

The Forgotten Women of British Intelligence

Routledge Advances in Critical Diversities

Workers and Cities of Global Neoliberalism

Narratives, Visual Representations, and Affective Encounters

A revealing look at the interrelationship between secret intelligence agencies and the wider societies and cultures they inhabitIntelligence agencies pride themselves on transcending politics and delivering objective intelligence assessments that speak truth to power and are detached from the cultural or political biases that pervade our fallen world. They are commonly understood as cloistered entities, operating behind the veil of secrecy with relative freedom from societal scrutiny.Spies, Culture, and Society demonstrates that intelligence services are, in fact, fundamentally embedded within the wider sociocultural domain they inhabit. Intelligence services have come in from the cold, featuring routinely today in the media and in our popular culture and political debates. Many profoundly influential cultural narratives, from ideas of a "deep state" to the many modern mythologies of espionage at the movies, have been shaped, often unintentionally, by the activities of intelligence services. In turn, intelligence agencies and their employees are not immune to the outside influence of culture and ideas, despite their noble dream of objectivity and detachment. This volume brings together some of the world's leading experts on intelligence and its wider impact in chapters that explore different aspects of this reciprocal relationship between intelligence services and the outside world. The topics covered include the influence of spy films and novels, interactions between spies and journalists, the historical roots of the "deep state" conspiracy theory, Western intelligence services and imperialism, and more.This interdisciplinary collection reveals how both intelligence officers and citizens have constructed memories of intelligence services through various social prisms. Offering meaningful insights for intelligence studies scholars, Cold War historians, and media scholars, this collection offers a new paradigm for understanding intelligence agencies as fundamentally integrated into the cultures and societies they seek to protect.

How 'Be Kind' Entrenches Sexism

(Un)kind

Adolf Hitler's plan to break British morale during the months after the D-Day landings in June 1944 involved the invention and implementation of the world's first rocket delivered warhead - the V1, or 'Doodle Bug' as it was christened by Londoners. Thousands were launched from their sites in the Low Countries against the British capital, killing 6,184 people and injuring 17,981. As the launch sites for the V1 were captured by Allied forces advancing through Belgium and into the Netherlands, a new, more terrifying rocket now hit London in mid-September, seemingly out of thin air - the V2. A streamlined rocket which stood as tall as a four-storey building, the V2 was highly advanced technology. Powered by a rocket engine burning a mix of alcohol-water and liquid oxygen, it blasted its way to the edge of space, before falling back to Earth at supersonic speed. Unlike the successes allied pilots and anti-aircraft crews had enjoyed shooting down the slower and more cumbersome V1, the V2 struck London almost undetected. It truly was Hitler's terror weapon made devastatingly real, causing over 30,000 casualties and leaving hundreds of thousands homeless, with the randomness of the strikes unnerving the British public even though their destructive capacity was less than the Blitz in 1940-41. But Winston Churchill's intelligence chiefs of SOE had known of the weapon weeks before it first struck the mainland as the Nazi boffins (led by Werner Von Braun who would go onto fame with the US Apollo Missions in the 1960s) tested the V2 in Eastern Europe. Away from prying eyes. Or, so they thought. In Stealing Hitler's Rocket, historian Guy Walters will reveal the true extent to how much we knew of this modern-day weapon and the operation by the Polish resistance to enable Britain and her allies to prepare for the day of reckoning.

In this landmark collection of original essays, originally published in 1989, outstanding feminist critics in Britain, France, and the United States present new perspectives on feminism and psychoanalysis, opening out deadlocked debates. The discussion ranges widely, with contributions from feminists identified with different, often opposed views on psychoanalytic criticism. The contributors reassess the history of Lacanian psychoanalysis and feminism and explore the significance of its institutional context and write against the received views on 'French feminism' and essentialism. This Classic Edition of the book features a new introduction.

Between Feminism and Psychoanalysis

Routledge IAFFE Advances in Feminist Economics

Black women in the United States have often been the subject of negative stereotypes, which have distorted perceptions of their unique work history and the challenges that they have faced in providing for their families. Black Women in the U.S. Economy: The Hardest Working Woman challenges the popular rhetoric about black women by presenting an empirical analysis of their labor market experiences and the critical role that black women play in providing for and sustaining their families and communities. The book explores the multiple identities, roles, and experiences of black women in the U.S. economy, addressing issues including their contribution to the social economy, how they have been affected by U.S economic restructuring, and the impact of increasing economic inequality on the wellbeing of black women and children.

Black women in the United States have often been the subject of negative stereotypes, which have distorted perceptions of their unique work history and the challenges that they have faced in providing for their families. Black Women in the U.S. Economy: The Hardest Working Woman challenges the popular rhetoric about black women by presenting an empirical analysis of their labor market experiences and the critical role that black women play in providing for and sustaining their families and communities. The authors use a Black Feminist framework along with applied microeconomics and econometrics in order to understand the multiple identities, roles, and experiences of black women in the U.S. economy. The book’s multi-dimensional analysis covers issues including black women’s contribution to the social economy, how economic restructuring in the U.S. has impacted on black women, and how declining wages since the 1970s have led to economic inequality and the impact that this has had on the wellbeing of black women and children. All chapters situate their analysis of the economic status of black women within the context of market forces, social relations among counter-groups, and political economy. This groundbreaking study will be essential reading for all those with an interest in Economics, Women’s Studies, Africana Studies and Sociology.
