Title: | Mujeres y guerra Deconstruyendo la noción de víctimas y reconstruyendo su papel de constructoras de la paz | | Authorship: | Ali, Fatuma Ahmed | Pages: | 218 | Size: | 6.38Mb | Edition: | 1 (2016) | Price: | 6,45 € | Language: | Castellà | Binding: | Llibre electrònic | Support: | e-Book - PDF | Other formats: | | Contemporary conflicts have a multidimensional impact on gender relations and it is particularly in the context of war where women are involved in delicate, complex and contradictory situations. This book does not only attempt to describe the role of women as victims in specific armed conflicts, but it shows the multiplicity and complexity of roles they can play from victims to perpetrators or murderers and, above all, it highlights their skills for the construction and establishment of peace. It provides a rigorous analysis of the issue based on historical evidence and in a present time context. Besides, it explores alternatives which might favour the perception of women as peacemakers and analyses texts and academic discourses on women's representation on issues related to war, armed conflicts and peace. | | Ressenya de la Revista Digital del Llibre Valencià / Ressenya Journal of Language, Technology & Entrepreneurship in Africa |
