This book investigates what impact gender equality has on genocide
in Africa, to verify whether it is a missing indicator from current
risk assessments and models for genocide prevention. Examining
whether States characterised by lower levels of gender equality are
more likely to experience genocide, Timmoneri adds gender
indicators to the existing early warning assessment for the
prevention of genocide. Moreover, the book argues for the
formulation of policies directed at the improvement of gender
equality not just as a means to improve women's conditions but as a
tool to reduce the risk of genocide and mass atrocities. Using case
studies from Nigeria, Ethiopia, Angola, Uganda, and Burundi,
Timmoneri analyses recent atrocities and explores the role of
gender equality as an indicator of potential genocide. Gender
Equality and Genocide Prevention in Africa will be of interest to
students and scholars of political science, genocide studies, and
gender studies.
