Produktinformationen zu „Women and Wars (ePub)“
Where are the women? In traditional historical and scholarly
accounts of the making and fighting of wars, women are often
nowhere to be seen. With few exceptions, war stories are told as if
men were the only ones who plan, fight, are injured by, and
negotiate ends to wars. As the pages of this book tell, though,
those accounts are far from complete. Women can be found at every
turn in the (gendered) phenomena of war. Women have participated in
the making, fighting, and concluding of wars throughout history,
and their participation is only increasing at the turn of the 21st
century. Women experience war in multiple ways: as soldiers, as
fighters, as civilians, as caregivers, as sex workers, as sexual
slaves, refugees and internally displaced persons, as anti-war
activists, as community peace-builders, and more. This book at once
provides a glimpse into where women are in war, and gives readers
the tools to understood women's (told and untold) war
experiences in the greater context of the gendered nature of global
social and political life.
