As old white men continue to dominate the national and international stages, the needs of women and minorities are constantly ignored. International politics are shaped by a ruthless competition for advantage and the world is full of conflicts, crises and wars. Things have to change.Activist and political scientist Kristina Lunz is on a mission to do just that. In her work from New York to Bogotá, from Germany to Myanmar, she became aware of a stubborn unwillingness to think past the status quo and to embrace new, innovative voices from marginalised groups. She also saw that the tradition of feminist activism married brilliantly with diplomacy: both require grim tenacity, boundless creativity and a solutions-oriented approach. In her attempt to reconfigure the field of foreign policy, she aims to set in motion a paradigm shift which replaces grandiose displays of military might with feminism, solidarity and climate justice. A Feminist Foreign Policy requires the promotion of equal rights in the handling of foreign affairs and security matters worldwide, with a particular focus on marginalized and politically under-represented groups. Ultimately, this is nothing less than an inclusive, visionary policy for the 21st century, one where security and prosperity, health and climate justice are possible - in other words: where peace is possible for everyone, everywhere.
