"[Presents] valuable insights into the ongoing deliberations regarding the rationale for and political implications and assessment of the role of female peacekeepers."
International Affairs
"Pruitt’s work prompts deeper reflection on questions such as whether there is a ‘right kind’ of gender mainstreaming, what the premises actually are for female participation, and how small changes can contribute to larger transformations. It is therefore a highly recommended read for any feminist or peace scholar."
