Anna Snyder provides a detailed account of the challenges women
representatives in non-governmental organizations (NGOs) faced in
building bridges across diverse ethnic, racial, national, regional,
and ideological backgrounds at the 4th United Nations (UN)
Conference on Women. This book traces the process by which women's
peace groups set an agenda for global policies in the area of women
and armed conflict. Setting the Agenda for Global Peace shows how
NGOs use conflict to develop transnational social movements and to
build consensus around issues of global concern. Using this
conference as a case study, Snyder finds three purposes for social
movement conflict: contention arising from policy development;
deep-rooted historical conflict; and conflicts over NGO network
priorities. Drawing together feminist, conflict resolution, and
social movement theories, this comprehensive text analyzes the
large scale decision making processes for NGOs and points towards
future directions for conflict resolution and consensus building.
