This Book, The First Feminist Ethnography Of The Violence In Northern Ireland, Is An Analysis Of A Political Conflict Through The Lens Of Gender. The Case In Point Is The Workingclass Catholic Resistance To British Rule In Northern Ireland. During The 1970S Women In Catholic/Nationalist Districts Of Belfast Organized Themselves Into Street Committees And Led Popular Forms Of Resistance Against The Policies Of The Government Of Northern Ireland And, After Its Demise, Against Those Of The British. In The Abundant Literature On The Conflict, However, The Political Tactics Of Nationalist Women Have Passed Virtually Unnoticed. Begoa Aretxaga Argues Here That These Hitherto Invisible Practices Were An Integral Part Of The Social Dynamic Of The Conflict And Had Important Implications For The Broader Organization Of Nationalist Forms Of Resistance And Gender Relationships.Combining Interpretative Anthropology And Poststructuralist Feminist Theory, Aretxaga Contributes Not Only To Anthropology And Feminist Studies But Also To Research On Ethnic And Social Conflict By Showing The Gendered Constitution Of Political Violence. She Goes Further Than Asserting That Violence Affects Men And Women Differently By Arguing That The Manners In Which Violence Is Gendered Are Not Fixed But Constantly Shifting, Depending On The Contingencies Of History, Social Class, And Ethnic Identity. Thus Any Attempt At Subverting Gender Inequality Is Necessarily Colored By Other Dimensions Of Political Experience.
