About this work

Description

"Sex and World Peace has been a go-to book for instructors, advocates, and policymakers since its publication in 2012. Since then, there have been major changes in world affairs, such as the #MeToo movement, and there have been advances in both theoretical and empirical literature surrounding the subject. This new edition revises and updates the book for a new generation. The book retains its important overview of the relationship between women's oppression and war, with new material covering UN and US-led developments for global women's rights since 2010, analysis of new examples of gender and conflict throughout the world, and updates of the statistical models that support their thesis"-- Provided by publisher.
