Titre complet:
Gender, Peace and Security in Southeast Asia: Rethinking from the Margins of a Crisis-prone region

Résumé:
This presentation examines the gendered implications to Southeast Asia being one of the most 'crisis-prone' region in the world. Building on feminist perspectives, it will identify three main themes for rethinking peace and security from the experiences of women 'in the margins'. The presentation makes a strong case for how and why the study of gender, peace and security in Southeast Asia can actually offer new and potential pathways for understanding and transforming global politics.
