FEMİNİST ULUSLARARASI İLİŞKİLERDE GÜVENLİK VE BARIŞ: SURİYE İÇSAVAŞI VE KADINLAR
SECURITY AND PEACE IN FEMINIST INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: THE SYRIAN CIVIL WAR AND WOMEN

Summary/Abstract: The 1980s saw a rise in critical discourse in the field of international relations, while feminist theory gained a foothold thanks to its contributions to the discipline. The emergence of a social gender perspective in international relations has increased the debate on many fundamental gendered issues, including the distinction between high/low politics, the state, war and security. On the issue of security, in particular, efforts to give women visibility and the contribution of the female experience have deepened security perspectives in international relations, ensuring that the discipline’s masculine values are questioned. This study will attempt to analyze the feminist approach to concepts of violence, security and peace and to explore feminist critiques of international relations. The literature review will be followed by the methodology in which the conditions of Syrian women as a result of the Syrian Civil War will be examined together with statements from the women themselves. Thus, the study will use both theory and practice to evaluate feminist conceptualizations of security, violence and peace in the discipline of international relations.
