The Mini-skirt Brigade: Distorting Women's Participation in Armed Conflict 5. The Rousing of Republican Feminism. . . 6. Reformation Versus Revolution? Feminist Genealogies in Conflict

The aim of the book is to show how feministidentity development and nationalism can be interlinked. & as a contribution tothe bodies of literature on conflict and peace studies, gender studies, theoryon nationalism and critical social movement theory, this book supplies thediscourse of women in war with a fresh disrupting of the boundariesconstructed around the representation of women in armed conflict.
