Are Women Peaceful? Reflections on the Role of Women in Peace-Building

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article

Abstract

This paper examines the way that women's relationship to peace is constructed in international institutions and international law. It identifies a set of claims about women and peace that are typically made and considers these in light of women's experience in the conflicts in Bougainville, East Timor and the Solomon Islands.
