This volume explores the implementation of key gender policies in
international peace and security, following the adoption of UN
Security Council resolution 1325 in October 2000, the first
thematic resolution on Women, Peace and Security. How should we
understand women's participation in peace processes and in peace
operations? And what forms of gendered security dynamics are
present in armed conflict and international interventions? These
questions represent central themes of protection and participation
that the international community has to address in order to
implement UNSCR 1325. Thus far, the implementation has often
employed varying approaches related to gender mainstreaming, a
third theme of the resolution. Yet, there is a dearth of systematic
data which until recently has restricted the ability of researchers
to evaluate the progress in implementation and impact of UNSCR
1325. By engaging with both empirics and critical theory, the
authors of this edited volume make important contributions to the
gender, peace and security agenda. They identify some of the
problems of implementing UNSC 1325 and offer a sobering assessment
of progress of implementation and insights into how to advance our
understanding through systematic research. Many of the chapters are
focused on operational aspects of UNSCR 1325, but all also engage
with the theoretical underpinnings of UNSCR 1325 to bring forth
central debates on more fundamental challenges to the development
of knowledge in the fields of gender, peace and security. This book
will be of much interest to students of gender studies, peace and
conflict studies, security studies and IR in general.
