Description

In this insightful new book, Tine Destrooper analyzes the political projects of feminist activists in light in their experience as former revolutionaries. She compares the Guatemalan and Nicaraguan experience to underline the importance of ethnicity for women’s activism right through and after the civil conflict.

The first a part of the book traces the influence of armed conflict on up to date women’s activism, by combining an analysis of women’s personal histories with an analysis of structural and contextual factors. This very important analysis forms the basis of the second one a part of the book, which discusses several alternative varieties of women’s activism rooted in indigenous practices

Combining a mico- and macro-level analysis to provide a sound understanding of women’s activism post-conflict, this Come Hell or High Water is a useful resource for scholars, students, and these days’s feminist activists.
