N1  - Amidst conflict situations all around our increasingly violent world -ranging from wars between nations to abuse of women and children within the home- women are making effective, coutrageous and often creative nonviolent responses. Yet little attention has been given to the specific contributions of women to "conflict resolution". This book helps to fill the gap. After three analytical essays, women from thirteen countries around the worls present case studies of how women`s groups are confronting violence in their context. A rich variety of approaches is reflected here, ranging from the political to the educational to the pastoral. What they have in common is that all grow out of an awareness of the interlinkages of various forms of violence, an emphasis on practical action and an insistence on nonviolence as the only appropriate and workable means of responding to violence
