Give Peace a Chance: Local Experiences for Global Challenges

Zusatztext

This book proposes to think about conflict in a way connected to the intersecting inequalities of gender, race, class, and territory that have hierarchized the world's populations since colonization and created the conditions for genocides and epistemicides.The book presents a broader spectrum of global challenges by highlighting the inequalities that sustain a profoundly unequal order even in traditionally perceived peaceful periods. To address such challenges, it is necessary, as the authors of the volume argue, to break down the walls of masculinized, patriarchal, white-centric, and elitist structures that continue to guarantee privileges for a reduced portion of the world's population.
