**Description:**
"Women, Peace and Security in Nepal: From Civil War to Post-Conflict Reconstruction" explores the roles of women in Nepal during the civil war (1996-2006) and the subsequent post-conflict reconstruction period (2006-2016). The book critically engages with the women, peace, and security literature, raising questions about the potential for peace processes to empower women and emphasizing the significance of a gender perspective in understanding conflict, security, and peace.
Following the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Accord in 2006, Nepal witnessed a significant increase in women's political representation in the Constituent Assembly, which was hailed as a milestone for women's empowerment in South Asia. The book examines how Nepal differs from other cases in South Asia and highlights the role of women's mobilization in achieving this success. It also explores whether war and peacebuilding processes can contribute to transforming gender roles.
By presenting studies of wartime and post-conflict Nepal through a gender lens, this book offers critical insights into the argument that conflict and peacebuilding can drive changes in gender dynamics. It contributes new knowledge on women's disempowerment and empowerment in conflict and peacebuilding contexts and provides valuable insights for ongoing discussions on gender and political change in conflict-affected societies.
This book is a valuable resource for students of peace and conflict studies, gender security, South Asia studies, international relations, policymakers, and NGOs interested in women's roles in conflict and post-conflict settings.
