Description: |
Three key themes are addressed in this study of world-wide gendered violence: the risks women take in resisting violence; women's agency in sustaining conflict; and the public/private divide in gendered violence. The study ranges from intra-state conflict to domestic violence. |
Synopsis: |
Highlighting gendered violence across layers of social and political organization, from the military to the sexual, this book explores the connections between international security, intra-state conflict and `domestic` violence. International in scope, it makes the links between the local and the global and between the public and the private, in its discussion of gendered violence.Claiming that it is not enough to simply `add` women to international relations theory, the contributors to this book brilliantly demonstrate how much more fruitful an in-depth analysis of the different layers of gendered violence can be. This book will be necessary reading for students and academics of women`s studies, international relations and political theory. |
