Auga Ulrike & Von Braun Christina (editors), Gender in Conflicts: Palestine-Israel-Germany, Transaction Publishers, 2006.

From the cover of the book:

Gender order is one domain in which claims to power are demarcated in societies based on a religious codex as well as in secular societies such as nation-states. Gender order especially becomes the area in which conflicts are carried out when a society experiences transition or clashes with another society.

At a time when Israel and Palestine face an escalation of their conflict and Germany is undergoing profound changes, renowned scholars discuss the implications on the gender order from their individual vantage points. The trans-disciplinary articles focus on gender in the context of knowledge, arts and representation, memory and scripture, political transition, and life sciences.
