This book offers a critical analysis of gender mainstreaming
initiatives in the post-tsunami context in Indonesia. Aiming to
challenge the terms of the debate in gender mainstreaming and
disaster reconstruction efforts, Jauhola offers an important
contribution for the discussion of what 'feminisms and disasters'
could be. The work provides an in-depth analysis of three
governmental practices of gender mainstreaming: the use of the
concept pair sex/gender; the use of gender analysis and the use of
project management tools and local subversion that challenges the
potential normative violence of gender mainstreaming. Providing
feminist intersectional reading of gender mainstreaming the book
aims to illustrate that this framework does not lack political
alternatives, but rather, it offers an alternative focus for
feminism and for the re-conceptualisation of 'political', and
provides tools for practitioners of aid aiming to come to grips
with the complexity of gender equality policy agenda and its
potential violent social consequences in global politics. Drawing
on extensive field research in Aceh, this text is one of the first
book length studies, and thus provides a significant addition to
Indonesian literatures on intersectional analysis of gender,
religion, heteronormativity, and feminist subversive practice. It
is a vital resource for those interested in understanding global
interconnections of localised disaster and conflict reconstruction.
