★In 'Gender in International Relations' (1992) she reworked Morgenthau's six principles.
★She argued that classical realism rests on a narrow, masculine view of human nature and power.
★Tickner called for objectivity, power and security to be rethought to include women's experiences.

★Janet Abu-Lughod studied world-systems and global cities, a different field.
★Hannes Peltonen works on responsibility and IR theory, not this feminist reformulation.
