Voor haar proefschrift, dat hier in boekvorm voorligt, vertrok film- en theatertheoretica Van Schermbeek van de vraag waarin een vrouw zichzelf herkent wanneer ze geniet van een roman, een film of een toneelstuk. Zij gaat voor deze analyse van de vrouwelijke lees- en kijklust de dialoog aan met het toonaangevende werk van Teresa de Lauretis. Maar ze gaat ook nader in op niet-feministische theorieën, zoals die van Vladmir Propp, Claude Lévi-Strauss en Juri Lotman.

Virginia Woolf famously wrote 'as a woman I have no country', suggesting that women had little stake in defending countries where they are considered second-class citizens, and should instead be forces for peace. Yet women have been perpetrators as well as victims of violence in nationalist conflicts. This unique book generates insights into the role of gender in nationalist violence by examining feature films from a range of conflict zones. In The Battle of Algiers, female bombers destroy civilians while men dress in women's clothes to prevent the French army from capturing and torturing them. Prisoner of the Mountains shows a Chechen girl falling in love with her Russian captive as his mother tries to rescue him. Providing historical and political context to these and other films, Matthew Evangelista identifies the key role that economic decline plays in threatening masculine identity and provoking the misogynistic violence that often accompanies nationalist wars.
