Next week we'll continue talking about the issues - looking at a variety of case studies from many parts of the world, some drawn from the work of Ann Jones, who is coming to visit us to talk about her work in Winter In Kabul: Life Without Peace in Afghanistan (Picador: 2009) and War is Not Over When It’s Over: Women Speak Out From the Ruins of War (Metropolitan Books: 2009).
This Davies Forum gathers and interrogates research by scholars from a wide variety of disciplines and backgrounds whose combined insights provide a unique overview of the evolving roles of women at the intersection of violence and war - from the domestic to the international and back. Posts are generated mainly by students in the seminar.

On the Continuum of (Sexualized) Violence
During our last class we began talking about the continuum of (sexualized) violence, as identified by feminist scholars (such as Ann Jones, Liz Kelly, Jacqui True), as well as about linkages between masculinity and violence (drawing on the work of R.W. Connell in particular)... I would love to hear any follow-up reflections or thoughts - please post as a comment to this entry.
