This volume reflects the multiplicity of women's role in peace politics in South Asia through a collection of important articles on the subject. Reflecting the three genres through which women's peace politics is often played out, the book is divided into three sections: ideas and ideologies, South Asian women's practices of structured negotiations for peace, and the lives of 'ordinary' women who symbolize women's unending quest for peace and justice.
