Minerva: Women and War | Report Error | Publisher: Frank Cass Publishers | Description: 'Minerva: Women and War is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal which examines the roles of women in war and the ways that conflict affects women's lives. The journal was established (under the name Minerva: Quarterly Report on Women and the Military) in 1983 by Linda Grant De Pauw, formerly of the George Washington University, a pioneer in the study of women's military history. Minerva: Women and War is being relaunched in 2003 by Frank Cass Publishers with a new editorial team. The new editors will build upon the journal's strong tradition of publishing ground-breaking articles in military history while also emphasizing the study of contemporary issues with a range of disciplinary approaches including politics and international relations, sociology, anthropology, women's studies, war studies and peace studies. The first issue of 2003 takes the theme 'Women and the War on Terror' and will present contemporary and historical perspectives on the relationship between women and the war on terrorism which was declared by the Bush administration in the aftermath of 11 September 2001.' | http://www.frankcass.com/jnls/m | Date Added: 12/11/2003 |

Nonviolence Today | Report Error | Publisher: | Description: 'Nonviolence Today is published every two months to help increase the understanding and use of nonviolence. We publish reports and evaluations of trainings and actions, with a view to improving the quality of both. It's the peoples' magazine and first hand participant reports are especially welcome. Nonviolence Today also serves an educational role in promoting a theoretical understanding of nonviolence as a political philosophy. There is much diversity of opinion of what that is, but the common ground of agreement is probably that political power comes from cooperation. If we don't like the behaviour of power holders, then we withdraw our cooperation in sufficient numbers and they will be disabled. Nonviolent action is a technique which has existed throughout history and occurs in all cultures and has been used by an enormous range of social groups. Nonviolence can be applied to activities as widely different as personal growth and national defence. Violence is not necessary for social change and is, in fact, counterproductive to greater freedom, justice and harmony.' | http://www.uq.net.au/~zzdkeena/ | Date Added: 10/11/2003 |
