Reviews

This is an extremely informative, rich, and thoughtful publication, essential to all of those who are interested in what lies beyond the basic notion of women s participation in peace keeping. It is, however, a demanding read because of the complexity and number of themes and positions that intersect within and between the different articles. Both the Introduction and the Concluding Remarks offer very worthwhile reading as stand-alone articles . (Ines Smyth, Gender & Development, Vol. 23 (3), November, 2015)
