2016 Annual Conference: Peace, gender and militarism

Written by Centre Delàs on . Posted in Jornades del Delàs

17th of November 2016, in Barcelona, we will hold the annual conference from Centre for Peace Studies J.M Dèlas, in regard of the following topic  "Peace, gender and militarism".

Delàs Center dedicates its conferences from 2016 to reflect on the position of women in military structures and armed conflicts, while examining the diverse roles she can take part with.

From a feminist perspective the patriarchy is cause and consequence of military violence which appears in areas of armed conflict, process of preparation for war and the society in which they are integrated. 

Is militarism an extent of the patriarchy and does it legitimate violence against and by women? To reach conclusions in these areas among others related to militarism and gender we will have two debate panels: The matter of gender among the Spanish armed forces and The roles of Women in Armed Conflicts.
