Aftermath: women and gender issues in postconflict Guatemala Forced Migration Online (24276783) Migration, asylum and refugee law FORCED MIGRATION ONLINE WOMEN VICTIMS OF CONFLICT CIVIL WAR POLITICAL CONFLICT GENDER ROLES REFUGEE EXPERIENCES RESEARCH POLICY This report addresses the effects Guatemala's political violence of the early 1980s had on women and gender issues in the country. The paper consists of four sections. The first section is a historical overview of Guatemala's armed struggle, and includes a discussion of the Guatemalan army's counterinsurgency strategies. Section 2 addresses the physical, psychological, and social impact of the attenuated violence on women and family. The third section examines the economic and political intersection of political violence and gender, with an exploration of the gendered experiences of internal displacement and exile, and the implications of those experiences on gendered and feminist policy. The paper concludes with a series of observations and recommendations for future policy in this area. 2026-09-30T12:00:31Z Text Online resource 10.25446/oxford.33360468.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/Aftermath_women_and_gender_issues_in_postconflict_Guatemala/33360468 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
