Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) in US Security Cooperation

Susan Yoshihara, editor
Hardcover: $115.00
ISBN: 979-8-89616-332-9
The authors of this groundbreaking book explore the origins, rationale, and evolution of Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) efforts in the context of US security cooperation. Focusing on real-world policy and practice, they draw on cases ranging from post–World War II Japan to contemporary Ghana to demonstrate how including women in security cooperation efforts, while not without challenges, has improved operational effectiveness across the US military, built better security relationships, and advanced civil-military relations and human rights.
 
Susan Yoshihara is president of the American Council on Women, Peace, and Security and also on the faculty of the Institute of World Politics.
