Abstract

LAY SUMMARY The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) is at a critical juncture as it seeks to reconstitute under a new framework of cultural change. Supporting this cultural shift are internal and external reports, surveys, advisory panels, class action lawsuits, and academic literature that acknowledge the systemic and structural barriers that must be addressed to realize the cultural change sought. Aligned with federal commitments to Gender-Based Analysis Plus, the authors call for the application of an anti-oppression lens to reimagine the principle that underpins the personnel management system: the universality of service. In doing so, this article discusses the policy implications and opportunities of turning an anti-oppression lens on the taken-for-granted principle within the military that has historically been employed in a discriminatory way. Such an approach would challenge the blanket application of the policy and enable the CAF to integrate culture change into its implementation of key strategic goals, including long-term reconstitution efforts.
想象的力量女权主义重新思考服务的普遍性
概述 加拿大武装部队(CAF)正处于寻求在新的文化变革框架下进行重组的关键时刻。支持这一文化转变的有内部和外部报告、调查、咨询小组、集体诉讼和学术文献,它们都承认要实现所寻求的文化变革,就必须解决系统性和结构性障碍。根据联邦对 "性别分析补充 "的承诺,作者呼吁应用反压迫视角来重新认识人事管理制度的基本原则:服务的普遍性。在此过程中,本文讨论了将反压迫视角转向军队中历来以歧视性方式使用的理所当然的原则所带来的政策影响和机遇。这种方法将对一概适用该政策的做法提出质疑,并使中国空军能够将文化变革纳入其主要战略目标的实施过程中,包括长期的重建工作。
