What roles do women play in world politics? Who are these women, and what impact do they have on international relations? D'Amico and Beckman have assembled a diverse array of contributors who provide a variety of answers. Some contributors consider women as national leaders and profile Chamorro, Gandhi, Thatcher, and Aquino as examples. Autobiographical essays and interviews describe the experiences of Margaret Anstee, Benazir Bhutto, Jeane Kirkpatrick, and Golda Meir. Other contributors analyze international women's movements, the roles of women in the Green Movement and in the revolutionary movements in Cuba and Nicaragua, and the work of Jane Addams in the peace movement. Some analyze the attitudes and beliefs of America's leading opinion makers on the subject of women and men in leadership roles. Written for beginning students in comparative politics and international relations, their work is both fundamental as an introductory text and pioneering in scope and conception.

FRANCINE D'AMICO is Visiting Research Fellow in the Peace Studies Program at Cornell University. She has written on women at war and the combat controversy. She is an officer of the Feminist Theory and Gender Studies Section in the International Studies Association.

PETER R. BECKMAN is Professor of Political Science at Hobart and William Smith Colleges. He has published the textbook World Politics in the Twentieth Century (1984) and The Nuclear Predicament (2nd ed., 1992). Beckman and D'Amico have edited a companion volume to this work entitled Women, Gender, and World Politics: Perspectives, Policies, Prospects (Bergin & Garvey, 1994).
