Women have been instrumental for decades in shaping the peace movement in Canada. In this wide-ranging and unique collection, 37 women activists and authors document and analyse the historical and current events of the movement from the early part of this century to the present. The variety of issues raised by these historical, documentary, theoretical, cultural, and creative writings express the diverse strategies of women who work for peace and social justice. These women eloquently imagine, think, and act for a more peaceful world. At the same time they demonstrate that the peace movement has been substantially influenced by feminism.
Part I: Peace History; Part II: Thinking About Peace; Part III: Acting for Peace; Part IV: Imagining Peace.
