Over the past fifteen years, there have been over 150 reported suicide bombings committed by women around the world. Because of its prominence in media reporting, the phrase \"female suicide bomber\" has become loaded with gendered notions and assumptions that elicit preconditioned responses in the West.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eFemale\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eSuicide Bombings\u003c\/i\u003e critically examines and challenges common assumptions of this loaded term. Tanya Narozhna and W. Andy Knight introduce female suicide bombings as a socio-political practice and a product of deeply politicized, gendered representations. Drawing on a combination of feminist and post-colonial approaches as well as terrorism studies literature, the authors seek to transcend ideological divisions in order to enhance our understanding of how gender, power, and academic practices influence our perceptions of female suicide bombings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tanya Narozhna,W.
