The Law of War and Peace : A Gender Analysis: Volume 2

Omtale

The Law of War and Peace: Volume Two offers a cutting-edge analysis ofthe relationship between law, armed conflict, gender and peace. This secondvolume focuses on peace and the post-conflict period, examining the post-conflictlegal structures that regulate peacekeeping, peacebuilding, and peaceagreements. Applying an intersectional, queer, crip and decolonial approach topost-conflict legal structures, transitional justice, food security, environmentalsecurity, militarism and peacekeeping, the authors explore the possibilities ofqueer feminist changes to the laws of war and peace. Across the book the authors examine the laws that promote the shift from armedconflict to peace, as well as the role of militarism and military masculinities inthe production of ‘the everyday’ of so-called peacetime states. They reflect onthe possibility for feminist change in the law on war and peace, as understoodthrough a gender analysis, and encourage dialogue beyond the confines ofthese pages, in a slow and considered commitment to queer feminist peace.
