As old white men continue to dominate the national and
international stages, the needs of women and minorities are
constantly ignored. International politics are shaped by a
ruthless competition for advantage and the world is full of
conflicts, crises and wars. Things have to change. Activist
and political scientist Kristina Lunz is on a mission to do just
that. In her work from New York to Bogotá, from Germany to
Myanmar, she became aware of a stubborn unwillingness to think past
the status quo and to embrace new, innovative voices from
marginalised groups. She also saw that the tradition of feminist
activism married brilliantly with diplomacy: both require grim
tenacity, boundless creativity and a solutions-oriented approach.
In her attempt to reconfigure the field of foreign policy, she aims
to set in motion a paradigm shift which replaces grandiose displays
of military might with feminism, solidarity and climate
justice. A Feminist Foreign Policy requires the promotion of
equal rights in the handling of foreign affairs and security
matters worldwide, with a particular focus on marginalized and
politically under-represented groups. Ultimately, this is
nothing less than an inclusive, visionary policy for the 21st
century, one where security and prosperity, health and climate
justice are possible – in other words: where peace is possible
for everyone, everywhere.
