United Nations Treaties, Conventions, and Resolutions Notes Bibliography IndexReviewsPaul Kirby and Laura Shepherd push us, their lucky readers, to the edges of our seats. No curling up, no cozy cuppa. Reading this book sharpens our wakefulness, keeps us restless in our curiosities. Kirby and Shepherd show us how the myriad and shifting resistances to the women, peace and security agenda actually have fueled the vitality of diverse WPS campaigners and their understandings. Our learning how to become what they call 'policy ecologists' will better equip us to grasp the fluid, messy realities of international political life. -- Cynthia Enloe, author of <i>Twelve Feminist Lessons of War</i> Paul Kirby and Laura Shepherd push us, their lucky readers, to the edges of our seats. Reading this book sharpens our wakefulness, keeps us restless in our curiosities. Kirby and Shepherd show us how the myriad and shifting resistances to the Women, Peace, and Security agenda actually have fueled the vitality of diverse WPS campaigners and their understandings. Our learning how to become what they call 'policy ecologists' will better equip us to grasp the fluid, messy realities of international political life. -- Cynthia Enloe, author of <i>Twelve Feminist Lessons of War</i> This magnificent collaboration exceeds all expectations. Engaging with the Women, Peace, and Security agenda as a dynamic plurality, Shepherd and Kirby map the complexities, tensions, and contestations of its vast ecosystem of policies and ‘messy realities.’ Their method produces compelling insights into what conditions (and failures) might empower feminist vitality (postcolonial, antiracist, indigenous, and queer) to foster feminist peace. -- Dianne Otto, Professorial Fellow, Melbourne Law School Reflecting the impressive repertoire of their feminist scholarship, Kirby and Shepherd present critical insights into the WPS policy ecosystem. Their ‘breaking’ of WPS in this book infuses new energy into efforts to imagine and realize feminist peace. -- Soumita Basu, Associate Professor of International Relations, South Asian University, New Delhi In Governing the Feminist Peace, two of the world’s leading scholars on Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) make a compelling case for pursuing feminist peace by forgetting WPS. They pair skillful, careful, detailed research on WPS’s multiplicities with field-changing theoretical analysis. The result is a must-read text for students, scholars, and practitioners alike. -- Laura Sjoberg, author of <i>Women as Wartime Rapists: Beyond Sensation and Stereotyping</i> Author InformationPaul Kirby is senior lecturer in the School of Politics and International Relations at Queen Mary University of London and a codirector of the UKRI GCRF Gender, Justice and Security Hub.
