Interpreters of Occupation Gender and the Politics of Belonging in an Iraqi Refugee Network Madeline Otis Campbell “After reading this nuanced, eye-opening ethnography, I will never again hear the deceptively simple phrase ‘military interpreters’ without pausing to think of Meena, of her complex navigations of identities, statuses, obligations, and opportunities. She and the other Iraqi women and men whose lives Campbell brings to life here teach us to think more realistically about the genderings of militarism and the dilemmas faced by refugees.” —Cynthia Enloe, author of Nimo’s War, Emma’s War: Making Feminist Sense of the Iraq War Paper $34.95s 978-0-8156-3437-9 ebook 978-0-8156-5359-2
