Sex and conquest : gendered violence, political order, and the European conquest of the Americas / Richard C. Trexler

by Richard Trexler

This study examines the relationship between force, gender dominance, and political power in European and Native American societies during the conquest era. It analyses how both cultures used sexual submission and gendered roles to establish social hierarchies and build states.
