520 1 $a"The world was shocked by the images that emerged from Abu Ghraib, not only because the US military was implicated in institutionalized torture, but also because women were seen as likely perpetrators of sexual violence. In the guise of a CIA manual, Coco Fusco's provocative A Field Guide for Female Interrogators offers an unflinching look at women's role in the military and at America's use of torture in the War on Terror. The opening essay "Invasion of Space by a Female" takes its title from the term for the authorized military tactic. Framed as a letter to Virginia Woolf - who argued that women could prevent war - this powerful commentary asks elemental questions about how the US military has capitalized on the growing presence of women in its ranks and how it is adapting originally feminist ideas about sexual assertiveness into its interrogation strategies. In her performance script, "The Feminist Future," Fusco poses as a visitor from the US Army who, on the occasion of a gathering of preeminent women in the art world, congratulates her peers for their strategic containment of feminism. Fusco's illustrated manual, "A Field Guide for Female Interrogators," offers everything a female interrogator needs to know about turning her sexuality into a weapon against terror."--BOOK JACKET.
