Summary "This timely edited collection brings together a team of scholars to consider the theme of gender and conflict since World War I. Covering a range of wars and armed struggles, the volume asks what has changed, what has continued, and how does understanding gender in times of conflict have ongoing relevance across the 20th and 21st centuries?"--Publisher's website.
