Reviews
Civil Society, Care Labour, and the Women, Peace and Security Agenda: Making 1325 Work addresses an urgent gap in the literature by placing centre stage the unpaid care work of those engaged in making change happen within the WPS framework in contexts of underfunding and austerity. This brings into focus a political economy lens to show us the importance and costs of this labour done under difficult circumstances by thousands of committed civil society actors in the public and the domestic spheres. By recognising the subsidy that this social reproductive labour provides to the global WPS regime, the authors chart an agenda for change within the WPS system. - Shirin Rai, Professor of Politics and International Studies and Director of the Warwick Interdisciplinary Research Centre for International Development, University of Warwick, UK Caitlin Hamilton, Anuradha Mundkur and Laura J. Shepherd eloquently articulate and explore a question at the heart of the Women, Peace and Security agenda: how has it come so far, given its chronic underfunding? Through a brilliant analysis that recognizes and amplifies the perspectives of women peacebuilders, this book sheds light on peacebuilding as a form of care labor, and opens up exciting new directions for research and policy. It is an important contribution to the urgent call to adequately fund work of women peacebuilders! - Agnieszka Fal-Dutra Santos, Program Coordinator and Peacebuilding Policy Specialist, Global Network of Women Peacebuilders
