Abstract

The debate about the role of women in war, violent conflict and the military is not only a long and ongoing one; it is also a heated and
controversial one. The contributions to this anthology come from experts in the field who approach the topic from various angles thus
offering different and, at times, diverging perspectives. The reader will therefore gain in-depth insight into the most important aspects
and positions in the debate.
