- Description
- This book looks at the impact of war on women in Britain. It shows how conflict has changed women’s lives and how those changes have put women at the centre of peace campaigning. Lindsey German shows how women have played a central role in anti-war and peace movements, including the recent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The women themselves talk about how they overcame prejudice and difficulty to become active. The book looks at how the changing nature of war, especially the involvement of civilians, increasingly involves significant numbers of women. As well as providing an inspiring account of women's opposition to war, the book also tackles key contemporary developments, challenging negative assumptions about Muslim women and showing how anti-war movements are feeding into a broader desire to change society.

- Description
- This book looks at the secret campaign that Mrs. Thatcher and her government waged before and after the Falklands War against “subversives”: anti-nuclear, new age, and ecology campaigners: poll tax protesters: trade unionists: Greenham Common women: Scottish nationalists: Ken Livingstone and the GLC: Derek Hatton and the city councilors of Liverpool: the far right: the Europe Union: and the Irish Republican Army. The central argument of the book is that there was not only a secret, internal “cold war” fought throughout the 1980s , but that the consequences of those years have huge implications for the importance and role of the state as it evolved into the twenty-first century outside parliamentary control.

- Barbara Wootton was one of the extraordinary public figures of the twentieth century. She was an outstanding social scientist, an architect of the welfare state, an iconoclast who challenged conventional wisdom and the first woman to sit as Speaker in the House of Lords in Parliament. This biography is an account of the making of British social policy at a critical period seen through the lens of the life and work of a pivotal figure. Oakley tells a story about the intersections of the public and the private and about the way her subject’s life unfolded within, was shaped by, and helped to shape a particular social and intellectual context.

- Description
- Through feminist interrogations of the politics of economies, struggles for political power and the gender order, this collection reveals how sexual orders and regimes are linked to spaces of production. The book argues that these spaces are themselves firmly anchored in overlapping patriarchies which are sustained and reproduced during and after war through violence that is physical as well as structural.

- Description
- 'Die Waffen nieder!' Three words established one woman's lasting repute worldwide. They bespoke of who Bertha von Suttner (1843-1914) was: intrepid and forthright. Bertha von Suttner - an Austrian novelist, radical pacifist, and the first woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize - was the type of woman the Belle Epoque needed to turn the destiny of womanhood around. She campaigned passionately against social injustice in whatever shape it presented itself, be this overt militarism, rigid conservatism, the oppression of women, or anti-Semitism. The Hague Peace Conferences of 1899 and 1907 were the undisputable highlights of Bertha's long career as an engaged peace activist. This book focuses on Bertha von Suttner's tenets and aspirations with regard to the emerging international tradition in The Hague. The book captures the gist of her views and ideals by way of hundreds of citations gathered from her memoirs, diaries, and correspondence: the rich yield of her unstoppable scholarly, literary, and journalistic endeavors.
