In recent decades, the states in the northeast of India have been
home to a number of protracted violent conflicts. And while the
role of women's movements in responding to conflict and violence
tend to be marginalized both by the media and by scholarship, they
have played a crucial role in attempts to strengthen civil society
and bring peace to the region. This collection offers a close look
at the successes and failures of those efforts, adding important
insight into ongoing debates on gender and political change in
societies affected by conflict. At the same time, the book takes a
fresh, critical look at universalist feminist and interventionist
biases that have tended to see peace processes as windows of
opportunity for women's empowerment while ignoring the complexity
of gender relations during conflict.
