South Asia Narratives on Militarization, Power, and Justice

Women and Politics of Peace: South Asia Narratives on Militarization, Power, and Justice
 

About the eBook

This book discusses the experiences of women negotiating conflict and post-conflict situations to deliver transformative peace.

Inspired by the vision and values of women of the South Asian Peace Network, this volume fills a critical gap in the global Women, Peace and Security (WPS) discourse. The chapters focus on the region’s multifaceted experiences and feminist expertise on women negotiating post-war/post-conflict situations structured around interlinked themes - women, participation and peacebuilding; militarization and violent peace; and justice, impunity, and accountability.

This volume looks at the efforts of women trying to deliver a transformative peace that questions gendered power relations while confronting the socio-cultural barriers that prevent them from participating in rebuilding conflict-affected societies to bring about just peace.
