Summary/Abstract |
The US military withdrawal process from Afghanistan brought politicized accusations of multiple foreign policy—military, intelligence, and diplomatic—miscommunications and misconceptions. Notably, however, critics (from Congressional members and oversight committees to members of the military, intelligence, and diplomatic communities) stop short of considering the drawdown a failure to implement domestic law—specifically, the Women, Peace and Security Act of 2017 (WPS Act) and the US Strategy on Women, Peace, and Security (WPS Strategy). This omission from the ongoing political debate demonstrates that—despite the United States in the late 2010s being “the first country in the world with a comprehensive law on WPS, and de facto, the first with a whole-of-government strategy that responds to such a domestic law”Footnote1—its government and security communities have not yet fully integrated critical WPS concepts and theories or understood their practical applicability for US security and policy decisions.

Summary/Abstract |
To demonstrate why a more feminist approach offers potentially greater success than the more masculine approaches already tried, and failed, this article provides a case study of US deterrence strategy toward Iran during the most recent presidential administrations—two Democratic and two Republican. Analysis will focus on whether each administration’s stance toward Iran has been traditionally masculine, feminine, or a mix. From that examination, recommendations are made regarding development of effective US-Iranian deterrence strategy in the future.
