      abstract = {This volume offers a nuanced understanding of female  agency in political violence by reviewing and analyzing the  political construction of motherhood as a form of social  agency against political violence committed by both state  and non-state actors in different parts of the world. While  the international relations discipline has traditionally  viewed the relationship between women and violent actors as  an exploitative one, this book demonstrates that taking  maternal bodies seriously creates important intellectual  space to examine the types and kinds of violence the  discipline of IR takes seriously and the types and kinds of  resistance practiced by mothers but often overlooked (at  least by male/mainstream IR). Focusing on motherhood as an  agency of change, this volume will appeal to scholars in  the field of gender and international security, think tanks  working on political and security affairs, social  activists, policymakers, an interested public audience, as  well as undergraduate and postgraduate students undertaking  study or research associated with gender and political  violence.},
