Overview

Through two Colombian case studies, Sanne Weber identifies the ways in which conflict experiences are defined by structures of gender inequality, and how these could be transformed in the post-conflict context. The author reveals that current transitional justice (TJ) and disarmament, demobilization and reintegration (DDR) laws and policies ultimately undermine rather than transform gender equality and, consequently, weaken the chances of achieving holistic and durable peace.

Reviews

Weber's work combines great analytical rigour with deep humanity - a must-read for those interested in peace and justice."" Mo Hume, University of Glasgow"
