 on women's participation in violent political movements. With multi site
 d research queries and myriad methodological perspectives\, the four par
 ticipants will chronicle the experiences of a range of female combatants
 \, from leaders\, foot soldiers\, foreign fighters to suicide bombers\, 
 and show how the mobilization of women into militancy\, terrorism and na
 tionalist activism impacts the nature and culture of local and global id
 eologies on war and conflict. Drawing from historical\, ethnographic and
  visual studies\, the workshop will debate the ways in which women's rol
 es as aggressive perpetrators of violence challenges conventional notion
 s of gendered victimologies sustained within feminist discourses on wome
 n in conflict. \n\nParticipants:\nDr. Miranda Alison (University of Warw
