This book provides a robust gendered analysis and establishes a feminist approach to international actors’ responses to sexual violence crimes in conflict in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the impact of these global political practices on local gendered power relations.Sexual violence crimes in eastern DRC have received significant global attention and triggered calls by the international community to end this violence. This book critically assesses international assistance to the Congolese legal system to challenge sexual violence crimes, to determine to what extent it engages with the continuum of gendered violence from peacetime to conflict. It also examines whether international assistance has produced any transformations in gendered power relations in eastern DRC. The author investigates how challenging sexual violence crimes in conflict necessitates broader female empowerment and engagement with gendered power relations.This book will be of interest to scholars and postgraduate students in gender studies, development studies and international relations. It will also provide significant guidance for professionals working for development agencies and international NGOs focusing on eastern DRC.

The book explores how the WPS agenda in the region is imagined, interpreted and implemented. The Middle East and North Africa exhibit many of the features the WPS agenda seeks to redress, such as historical grievances, discriminatory legal systems, economic and gender inequality, and fragility marked by violence, extremism and protracted displacement. The region is highly militarized by prolonged conflicts, and the enduring occupation of Palestine. These conditions lead to sexual and gender-based violence that disproportionally affect women and their effective and meaningful participation in conflict prevention and resolution. This volume examines how women’s and feminist groups engage with peace and security issues. It analyses what they have gained from WPS, and how local women’s activism may either clash or overlap with WPS. It also looks at how women in the region understand peace and security beyond the confines of WPS, or if they are confined to women’s issues.
