Focusing on feminist perspectives, this book critiques traditional just war theory by highlighting gender biases and advocating for alternative standards that prioritize women's experiences and political marginalization. Laura Sjoberg utilizes this feminist framework to examine the wars in Iraq post-Cold War, offering insights that challenge conventional notions of justice in warfare. The work aims to reconstruct just war principles to incorporate empathy and a deeper understanding of gender dynamics in conflict situations.
