This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of feminist
approaches to questions of violence, justice, and peace. The volume
argues that critical feminist thinking is necessary to analyse core
peace and conflict issues and is fundamental to thinking about
solutions to global problems and promoting peaceful conflict
transformation. Contributions to the volume consider questions at
the intersection of feminism, gender, peace, justice, and violence
through interdisciplinary perspectives. The handbook engages with
multiple feminisms, diverse policy concerns, and works with diverse
theoretical and methodological contributions. The volume covers the
gendered nature of five major themes: • Methodologies and
genealogies (including theories, concepts, histories,
methodologies) • Politics, power, and violence (including the
ways in which violence is created, maintained, and reproduced, and
the gendered dynamics of its instantiations) • Institutional and
societal interventions to promote peace (including those by
national, regional, and international organisations, and civil
society or informal groups/bodies) • Bodies, sexualities, and
health (including sexual health, biopolitics, sexual orientation)
• Global inequalities (including climate change, aid, global
political economy). This handbook will be of great interest to
students of peace and conflict studies, security studies, feminist
studies, gender studies, international relations, and politics.
