"The First Political Order: How Sex Shapes Governance and National Security Worldwide"

Women are involved with every single human endeavor, from Governance to business to radiological studies to weapons development, but they are not always recognized as such. Dr. Hudson's book describes the near universal and systematic subordination and alienation of women in institutions across the world, and the subsequent implications for security, governance and development. By providing this paradigm of analysis, Hudson's book brings new perspectives to every issue, and outlines the need for women inclusive institutions in every field.
