Gender Inclusive offers a challenging and unconventional
reinterpretation of gender and mass violence. Compiling essays and
excerpts drawn from nearly two decades of Adam Jones's writing on
gender and politics, this stimulating and diverse collection of
essays explores vital issues surrounding 'gendercide'
(gender-selective mass killing) including: How gender shapes men
and women as victims and perpetrators of mass violence, including
genocide. The range of gender-selective atrocities inflicted upon
males, especially the gendercidal killing of civilian men of
"battle age." The victimization of women and girls worldwide,
including the structural forms of violence ("gendercidal
institutions") directed against them. Genocidal violence throughout
modern history, with a particular focus on the Balkans and Rwanda.
In-depth critiques of prevailing gender framings in academic
scholarship, mass media, and the policy sphere. Adam Jones -
recently selected as "one of fifty key thinkers in Holocaust and
genocide studies" - contests prevailing interpretations of gender
and violence, arguing that they fail to capture the broad range of
gendered experience. His global-historical treatment is essential
reading for anyone with an interest in genocide, human rights and
gender studies.
