This volume explores the gendered and gendering effects of violence
against women in the extreme situations of major wars, genocides,
famines, slavery, the Holocaust, mass rape, and ethnic cleansing.
The female experience of methodical genocidal rape in the former
Yugoslavia, women's coerced participation in the Rwandan massacre,
the comfort women system during World War II, the gendering of
genocidal strategies during the Holocaust, nuclear testing in the
Pacific, and the reproduction policy in Tibet are analysed from a
feminist perspective and integrated into a wider framework - a
framework which uncovers the true consequences of identifying women
as simultaneously sexual objects, transmitters of culture, and
symbols of the nation.
