Violent conflict, climate change, and poverty present distinct threats to women worldwide. Importantly, women are leading the way creating and sharing sustainable solutions. Womens security is a valuable analytical tool as well as a political agenda insofar as it addresses the specific problems affecting womens ability to live dignified, free, and secure lives. First, this collection focuses on how conflict impacts womens lives and well-being, including rape and gendered constructions of ethnicity, race, and religion. The books second section looks beyond the scope of large-scale violence to examine human security in terms of environmental policy, food, water, health, and economics. Multidisciplinary in scope, these essays from new and established contributors draw from gender studies, international relations, criminology, political science, economics, sociology, biological and ecological sciences, and planning.
