The Women, Peace and Security agenda has developed over the past two decades, anchored in--but far exceeding--a series of resolutions adopted by the UN Security Council that address gender and the governance of peace and conflict. This book presents an analysis of the emergence of the WPS agenda as a knowable policy object, applying narrative and discourse theory to a dataset of publicly available documents published over the past two decades, and original interviews with people working on and around the WPS agenda at the United Nations Headquarters in New York.
