Reviews

'Set against the representation of women suffering from sexual violence during wars this is a tremendously important book. Its portrayal of Rwandan women as movers and shakers, as agents in political processes, sends out the strong message that women have a crucial role to play in dealing with their past and creating their country's future. The political weight of this cannot be overstated.' Susanne Buckley-Zistel, University of Marburg, Germany 'A fascinating account of women's political participation in contemporary Rwanda which brings together analysis of national and international policy-making and mobilisation to provide fresh insights into gender politics in the post-genocide context of the country. Essential reading for anyone interested in gender issues in Africa and in translational politics.' Jane Freedman, Universite de Paris VIII, France
