Examining whether states characterised by lower levels of gender equality are more likely to experience genocide, Timmoneri adds gender indicators to the existing early warning assessment for the prevention of genocide. Moreover, the book argues for the formulation of policies directed at the improvement of gender equality not just as a means to improve women's conditions but as a tool to reduce the risk of genocide and mass atrocities. Using case studies from Nigeria, Ethiopia, Angola, Uganda and Burundi, Timmoneri analyses recent atrocities and explores the role of gender equality as an indicator of potential genocide. Gender Equality and Genocide Prevention in Africa will be of interest to students and scholars of political science, genocide studies and gender studies--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Genocide $z Africa $x Prevention. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination against women $z Africa. 650 0 $a Women $z Africa $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Responsibility to protect (International law) 650 7 $a Genocide $x Prevention. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00940214 650 7 $a Responsibility to protect (International law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01895199 650 7 $a Sex discrimination against women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114376 650 7 $a Women $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176947 651 7 $a Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239509 776 08 $i Online version: $a Timmoneri, Serena, author. $t Gender equality and genocide prevention in Africa $d New York, NY : Routledge, 2019 $z 9780429021459 $w (DLC) 2019003622 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318013838.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FB4718C0101A11EA8DA14E4D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
