Yet, the results have been uneven. In this title, Melissa Johnston explains why gender interventions often fail to help those who most need them, using the case of Timor-Leste, a country subjected to high levels of peacebuilding and gender interventions between 1999 and 2017. Looking at three types of gender interventions, Johnston makes the case that as peacebuilders seek to rebuild war-torn societies, understanding the intersection of social and gender order is more important than ever UR - https://go.openathens.net/redirector/lords.parliament.uk?url=https://doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780197637999.001.0001 ER -
