Publication: WOMEN IN CONFLICT ZONES

WOMEN IN CONFLICT ZONES
Conflict inflicts suffering on everyone be it man woman, children, nature but women are the worst sufferers in a conflict zone affected particularly by its short- and long-term effects. Gender inequality, lack of economic empowerment, extreme poverty, displacement from their homes, destruction of social networks, cultural taboos, lower status in society, no role in decision making, and the lack of structures to protect them contribute to their sufferings. External violence-rape, molestation, mutilation of women’s bodies, and domestic violence- battering, stalking, marital rape of women significantly aggravates in conflict zones. The structural marginalization of women we witness in conflict zones does not amount to a ‘soft’ issue that we can afford to put off until after we solve the ‘hard’ ones. The hard issues - peace and security, reconciliation and rehabilitation, economic growth and prosperity depend on women as much as on men. Women though victimized play different roles as social actors in the three phases of conflict, that is, before, during and after conflict towards peace building. Women are not mere passive victims of conflict. They experience conflict in diverse ways as victims, survivors, community leaders, mediators and peacemakers.
The edited volumes I&II aim to generate new knowledge and debate on the challenges women face in conflict zones and their journey from victimhood to victor hood in terms of socio-political, cultural, and economic empowerment, resistance, renegotiating identity and spaces, and as peace negotiators. The volumes through new insights to the debate on gender and socio-cultural change in conflict-ridden societies would endeavor to generate awareness about the emerging issues regarding women in conflict, the dynamics of re negotiating their roles in changing situations: their roles as cultural and political activists, providers, members of social movements, leaders, peace builders, writers etc.
Papers are invited on any of the following sub-themes:
Women conflict and family
Women sexual violence and rape
Women conflict and community
Women conflict and health
Women conflict and human rights
Women conflict and public history
Women conflict and identity
Women politics and law
Women  conflict and  sexuality
Women protest and change
Women and narratives
Women migration and displacement
Women conflict and writings
Women politics and governance in conflict zones

Women as peace negotiators

Call For Papers - Publication: Diaspora in Global Perspective

L L I L J

(Autumn Issue 2014)
Diaspora in Global Perspective

The concept of diaspora has been derived from the Greek word meaning “To Scatter.”  Moreover, the word is associated with the dispersion of the Jews beyond Israel historically. Hence, the diaspora belongs to a scattered population with a common origin in a smaller geographic area. It, in other words, also means migration of a specific population across cultural domain where the uprooted people feel nostalgic about their homeland. It does not mean that they have no home; but having home on an alien land become a means of suffering for them. Therefore they see and feel the difference of living at home and abroad. The simple and single definition of the term is not possible because the concerned field of diaspora is changing its paradigms with respect to the changing modes of technologies in the digital age. Scholars must not think that diaspora has been lost due to the invented means of super technology.  On the contrary, the basic assumptions have been changed slightly; yet there is a lot of scope to study it again. Now the people’s sufferings have some additional tools and means by which they provide much scope in the field of research. This scope strikes with traditional structure of diaspora changing it in new dimensions and forms.

The study of diaspora in contemporary times has become multi-directional. Scholars usually try to see the basic roots to distinguish the concept of diaspora with respect to various cultural and geographical aspects. Now-a-days, the uprooted communities do not feel nostalgic about their homeland, because they have technological means of communication. Hence, the concept of ‘Myth of Returns’ has to be studied with new dimensions. Further, scholars can see the politics of globalization where the world is being shaped into a model of small village. So the idea of ‘inbetweenness’ has been affected due to these changes. Therefore, the study of diaspora has become complex having a lot of potential within it.

It is from this idea that we invite papers for the Autumn Issue 2014 of Lapis Lazuli-An International Literary Journal (LLILJ)  on DIASPORA IN GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE. Some of the major sub-themes which could be explored are as under:

Diaspora in the Age of Information Technology
Diaspora and Virtual World
Diaspora Politics
Celebrating Diaspora
Is Diaspora a Celebration or Melancholy?
Is Diaspora a Bane or Boon?
Diaspora of Violence and terror vis-à-vis Tibetan Diaspora, Kashmiri Pandit Diaspora, Palestinian Diaspora, Jewish Diaspora etc.
Concept of Home in Diaspora
Diaspora and Gender; Diaspora and Postcolonial Studies; Diaspora and Globalization; Diaspora and Multiculturalism; Diaspora and Autobiographies; Diaspora Memory and Identity
What after Diaspora?
South Asian Diaspora; Tibetan diaspora; Indian Diaspora; African Diaspora; Afro-American Diaspora; European Diaspora; Australian Diaspora.
