Summary

We reach a resting point in ongoing feminist IR/IR feminist journeying, a moment for summary looks around and off to horizons. The two chapters that compose a theme of citations appraise where feminists engaged with IR have been, where we are scuttling around to, where sticking points remain at the fulcrum of IR and feminist “nations” of scholarship, and how feminists/IR might work with our differences.

I have three concerns as we rest here. One is to recognize, insist on, herald, and caution those who have contributed to a cacophonous and multivectored journey. Some may think we are not as far ahead as we should be and others may wish to celebrate all gains made. Wherever we are is due to efforts, visions, and even the myopias of those who have been patiently drawing women and gender into and around the landscapes of IR and IR into feminism for nearly twenty years. Where “we” go next is no more preordained than the spaces already traversed; and, of course, there is no arrival point.

A second concern is that we expand our citational repertoire by bringing to feminist IR/IR feminism the worlds that appear in visual arts and fiction. I raised this issue in Part Ⅱ and return to it here with an emphasis on visual arts in “Feminist Arts of International Relations” and on fiction in “Internations of Feminism and International Relations.
