The Nordic Africa Institute, Research Unit.ORCID iD: 0000-0002-1406-8060
2016 (English)In: Journal of International Development, ISSN 0954-1748, E-ISSN 1099-1328, Vol. 28, no 3, p. 360-375Article in journal (Refereed) Published
Abstract [en]

The article examines the implementation of UNSCR 1325 ‘Women, Peace, and Security’ within the framework of post-colonial feminism. The author argues that in current international development co-operation, there is a need for deeper understanding of the complex, context-relevant social and political power structures and processes that prevent gender programming from enhancing gender justice. As an empirical case study the article discusses the challenges that the implementation of the UNSCR 1325 has been facing in Kenya.
