TY - JOUR PY - 2001// TI - The State of the Women's Movement in Eritrea JO - Northeast African studies A1 - Hale, Sondra SP - 155 EP - 177 VL - 8 IS - 3 N2 - In the pantheon of women's successful participation in liberation movements, Eritreans would rank near the top. Many of us who research women and social movements have been watching Eritrean women very closely. In the Eritrean case, where women participated in one of the most protracted conflicts in the twentieth century and in an even deadlier second war spilling over into the twenty-first century, we have another opportunity theoretically to note the differences between egalitarian gender relations during a conflict and the conditions for women in civilian life; for example, women's transition from the status of "fighter" to civilian (or demobilized fighter).
