Placing a posthuman-feminist approach to relationalist thinking at the heart of peace and security analysis in Africa, this book argues against the sidelining of marginalized groups and the more-than-human in peacebuilding efforts. It calls for a more intersectional, grounded, embodied and caring approach to peace and security to address the complex interactions between people and their surroundings, filling gaps left by earlier feminist work by highlighting the link between gender and the nonhuman world.This path-breaking account of peace and security addresses the often-overlooked connections between gender, the environment and power.
