States of Conflict: Gender, Violence and ResistanceSusie Jacobs, Ruth Jacobson, Jen Marchbank The volume will make links, in an non-simplistic way, between conflicts at the international, national, community, and household levels. It recognizes the enduring relevance of factors such as the exclusion of women from the public sphere and militarized constructions of masculinity to present-day examples of gendered violence. At the same time, it raises awkward questions about women's agency in these contexts. |
