In Come Hell or High Water: Feminism and the Legacy of Armed Conflict in Central America, Tine Destrooper analyses the political projects of feminist activists in light of their experience as former revolutionaries. She compares the Guatemalan and Nicaraguan experience to underline the importance of ethnicity for women's activism during and after the civil conflict. The book combines a micro- and macro-level analysis to present a sound understanding of post-conflict women's activism.
