Product Description
Review
"There has been a lot published on gender-based violence in the last 15 years, but there isn't any one work that does what this volume seeks to do. The book would be a good supplement for undergraduate courses in Women's Studies, Political Science, and the like."--December Green, Professor of Political Science and Director of International Studies, Wright State University
Product Description
Inspired by a conference held at Northeastern University on the topic of Women, War, and Violence, editors Robin M. Chandler, Lihua Wang, and Linda K. Fuller bring together research and real-life stories from 21 international contributors who document gender involvement from victims to valiant in wartime and activism. The book is divided into these sections: 1.) Rebuilding personal security for girls and women: Complications, concerns, and peace-building; 2.) Statist policy reform and reconciliation strategies; 3.) Social control and media representations; and 4.) Redefining feminism and hegemony in a global twenty-first century. Following a preface by Cynthia Enloe, contributors include Robin M. Chandler, Sam Cook, Simten Cosar, Karla J. Cunningham, Linda K. Fuller, Steven L. Gardiner, Angie Reed Garner, Kiri Gurd, Hayat Imam, Anne Jenichen, Colleen Keaney-Mischel, Rashida Manjoo, Justine McCabe, Noureddine Miladi, Michelle Morkert, Linda Piwowarczyk, Tadia Rice, Laura A. Rotella, Laura Sjoberg, Lihua Wang, and Natalja Zabeida.
