War Through an Intersectional Lens

Female Combatants and the Maoist Insurgency in Nepal

Beschreibung

War through an Intersectional Lens seeks for the first time to understand how women combatants experience war and post-war period given their multiple intersecting identities and subjectivities. It employs in-depth interviews, extensive archival research, and analysis of wide-ranging primary and secondary sources. Keshab Giri finds that women combatants experience war and post-war period differently given their intersecting identities and subjectivities. Any policies and programs seeking to improve their post-conflict reintegration and peacebuilding fail if they don't take the intersectional nature of their war and post-war experiences into account.
