While appreciating this scholarship, this volume highlights some of the omissions and concerns to make a quality addition to the ongoing discourse on the intersection of gender with peace and security with a focus on 1325. It aims at a reality-check of the impressive to-dos list as the seventeen years since the Resolution passed provide an occasion to pause and ponder over the gap between the aspirations and the reality, the ideal and the practice, the promises and the action, the euphoria and the despair. The volume compiles carefully selected essays woven around Resolution 1325 to tease out the intricacies within both the Resolution and its implementation. Through a cocktail of well-known and some lesser-known case studies, the volume addresses complicated realities with the intention of impacting policy-making and the academic fields of gender, peace, and security. The \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis new volume, edited by Seema Shekhawat, makes a significant contribution to the body of good practice and analysis on the implementation of Security Council Resolution 1325 (adopted in 2000). . . . This book is an ideal text to improve the understanding and relevance of the women, peace, and security agenda amongst a mainstream academic and policy audience. For advocates and specialists working on mainstreaming gender in the situations covered in the volume, the analysis provides extremely useful evidence and historical context for their efforts to promote implementation of1325. The chapters are accessible and engaging, while the case studies are highly topical and relevant for ongoing policy debates around sustaining peace and the Sustainable Development Goals. In April 2018, the President of the General Assembly organised a high-level meeting on Sustaining Peace, where ministers and other decision-makers universally acknowledged the urgency of transforming our current peace and security paradigm to one that is more inclusive, preventive, and resilient – all concepts enshrined in Resolution 1325. Seema Shekhawat’s text provides compelling analysis of the necessity to implement the resolution with the utmost urgency. * Gender And Development *\u003cbr\u003eNearly two decades after the UN Security Council passed Resolution 1325, implementation of the resolution remains problematic. The contributors to Gender, Conflict, Peace, and UNSC Resolution 1325 examine the challenges and opportunities for the successful implementation of 1325 in different countries across the globe. Recognizing that women are not a monolithic group as well as the importance of considering the intersectionality of gender, ethnicity and class, the authors explore the factors necessary for women’s full participation in peace processes, thereby fulfilling the women, peace, and security agenda. Readers will find the book a very useful and timely contribution to the literature on women, gender, and conflict. -- Kristen Williams, Clark University\u003cbr\u003eThere has never been a more crucial time for a book to bring the dynamics of gender and conflict to the frontlines of our thinking! Understanding the experience of women who suffer from the deep displaced pain inflicted by patriarchy is not only a path to peace, it is the only path to lasting peace. -- Linda M. Hartling, Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies\u003cbr\u003eWe live in times that are so critical that the world can no longer afford to dismiss the voices of women and their experiences. Both men and women benefit from making the human experience whole. In a world where \"fake news\" flood the market, the news that Seema Shekhawat offers are far from fake. Therefore, this book needs to reach not just a few privileged organizations. It needs to reach everybody. -- Evelin Lindner, Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgmentsIntroduction: Gender, Peace, and UNSC Resolution 1325, by Seema ShekhawatChapter 1: Redefining Women’s Roles in International and Regional Law: The Case of Pre- and Post-war Peacebuilding in Liberia, by Veronica Fynn Bruey\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: The Contribution of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women to the Implementation of Security Council Resolution 1325, by Antal Berkes\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: Faith Matters in Women, Peace, and Security Practices, by Elisabeth Porter\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Creating or Improving a National Action Plan based on UN Security Council Resolution 1325, by Jan Marie Fritz\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: Widowhood Issues for Implementation of UNSCR 1325 and Subsequent Resolutions on Women, Peace, and Security, by Margaret Owen\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: The Commodification of Intervention: The Example of the Women, Peace, and Security Agenda, by Corey Barr\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: Beyond Borders and Binaries: A Feminist Look at Preventing Violence and Achieving Peace in an Era of Mass Migration, by Aurora E.
