"Women played an integral role in the Spanish Civil War. In fact, women's participation in the anti-fascist resistance constituted one of the greatest mass political mobilizations of women in Spain's history. Milicianas provides a comprehensive picture of what life was like for the women who fought alongside their male comrades during the first year of the Spanish Civil War, focusing on how the women themselves viewed this experience. It examines the political and social forces that led to the acceptance of women into the ranks of armed combatants, and those that led to their eventual removal from the front"--Page 4 of cover.

This book analyses the reasons for women’s participation in the various Lebanese and Palestinian militias involved in the Lebanese Civil War (1975-1990). Whilst most existing accounts of the Civil War in Lebanon either overlook the roles and experiences of women entirely or focus on women as victims or peacemakers only, ‘Women and the Lebanese Civil War’ highlights that women were involved as militants (and often also as fighters) in all of the militias partaking in the war. Analysing individual motivations, organisational characteristics, security-related aspects and societal factors, the book explains why women were included as fighters in some of the militias but not in others. Based on extensive fieldwork in Lebanon, the book is the first comprehensive study of female perpetrators and supporters of political violence during the Lebanese Civil War. Beyond the case of Lebanon, it questions widespread assumptions about the roles of women at times of violent conflict and war.

This pioneering study explores the role of working-class militias as vanguard and guardian of the Chinese Revolution. The book begins with the origins of urban militias in the late nineteenth century and follows their development to the present day. Elizabeth J. Perry focuses on the institution of worker militias as a vehicle for analyzing the changing (yet enduring) impact of China's revolutionary heritage on subsequent state-society relations. She also incorporates a strong comparative perspective, examining the influence of revolutionary militias on the political trajectories of the United States, France, the Soviet Union, and Iran. Based on exhaustive archival research, the work raises fascinating questions about the construction of revolutionary citizenship; the distinctions among class, community, and creed; the open-ended character of revolutionary movements; and the path dependency of institutional change. All readers interested in deepening their understanding of the Chinese Revolution and in the nature of revolutionary change more generally will find this an invaluable contribution.

Las protagonistas de este relato son mujeres que decidieron afrontar la sublevación del 17 de julio de 1936 mediante la lucha armada. Su participación como combatientes en el bando republicano supuso un punto de inflexión para la historia de las mujeres españolas, pero a medida que la guerra avanzó, gran parte de ellas fueron relegadas a trabajos auxiliares o a la retaguardia, hasta el punto de verse gravemente desprestigiadas. Con el final de la contienda, muchas de ellas abandonaron España para no regresar, otras fueron duramente represaliadas. Finalmente, la historia las olvidó. ¿Pero quienes fueron estas milicianas? ¿Dónde lucharon? ¿Cómo y por qué fueron retiradas del frente? ¿Qué fue de sus vidas después de la guerra? La investigación para reconstruir sus biografías y recuperar su memoria, es el hilo conductor para explicar uno de los acontecimientos históricos más convulsos del siglo xx español desde una perspectiva de género.

Desde la Guerra Civil hasta la actualidad se ha creado un extendido mito en torno a las milicianas, esas mujeres jóvenes con mono azul y pistola al cinto que en el verano del 36 se marcharon a los frentes a defender la República entre un aura de romanticismo y mística revolucionaria. Mujeres que despertaron gran revuelo en las trincheras por su condición femenina y su actitud desafiante ante unos hombres que las vieron en su mayoría como rivales, objetos de deseo o bellezas perturbadoras, y los menos como colegas fraternales. A lo largo de los últimos ochenta años, distintos testigos, escritores o cineastas las han recordado como iconos de mujeres modernas que rompieron tabúes, recreaciones que han contribuido a construir la imagen de estas mujeres combatientes. Pero no siempre la mitificación se corresponde con la realidad.

Why do communities form militias to defend themselves against violence during civil war? Using original interviews with former combatants and civilians and archival material from extensive fieldwork in Mozambique, Corinna Jentzsch's Violent Resistance explains the timing, location and process through which communities form militias. Jentzsch shows that local military stalemates characterized by ongoing violence allow civilians to form militias that fight alongside the government against rebels. Militias spread only to communities in which elites are relatively unified, preventing elites from coopting militias for private gains. Crucially, militias that build on preexisting social conventions are able to resonate with the people and empower them to regain agency over their lives. Jentzsch's innovative study brings conceptual clarity to the militia phenomenon and helps us understand how wartime civilian agency, violent resistance, and the rise of third actors beyond governments and rebels affect the dynamics of civil war, on the African continent and beyond.

This volume critically engages with the phenomenon of civil militias in Africa, especially the nature of threats and challenges they pose to national and human security. It questions why the African political scene is increasingly inundated with the activities of civil militias, examines the socio-political and economic conditions that trigger and/or encourage and sustain the operations of civil militias, and investigates the dominant motivations of African civil militias. In the face of this complex security emergency, the volume conceptualizes and theorizes the phenomenon of civil militias; focuses the academic debate and policy on the links between civil militias and the growing cycle of state failure, instability, collapse and fragmentation in Africa; broadly and critically explores and expounds the short-term security consequences of the operations of civil militias; and articulates a corpus of policy-relevant knowledge. The book is ideally suited to courses on African studies, security and peace studies and military studies but would also be of interest to practitioners.
