Gendered peace

This volume makes a contribution to the small but growing literature on women, conflict, and peace building. Its particular focus is on the moments after a peace accord, or some other official ending of a conflict, often denoted as "post-conflict" or "post-war". Such moments gernerally herald great hope for holding to account those who committed grave wrongs during the conflict, and for a better life in the future. Many of the chapters that appear in this volume were commissioned as background papers for the 2005 UNRISD report, Gender Equality: Striving for Justice in an Unequal World.
