(2011) -- Book backmatter.This is an autobiography of an unusual and versatile woman, focusing on her academic development and achievements as well as her international activism. In addition to a discussion of the origins and path of the author's academic work and activism (for peace and for women's rights), that deals with the author's work in US intelligence and immigration to Israel in the 1960s, the volume includes ground-breaking articles from the different, often controversial areas of her academic specializations (Czechoslovak communism, Soviet foreign policy; peace studies, the Arab-Israeli conflict; women's rights). The volume also includes photos of the author at work and in action. - The book offers an inside look at a lifetime of courageous activities and ground breaking intellectual pursuits of a woman who was a leader in her academic field and in the struggle for peace and for women's rights. - The included texts themselves shed light on important topics, both past and present, including the Israeli-Arab Conflict and also the issue of women and peace.Pioneers in Arts, Humanities, Science, Engineering, Practice,2509-5579 ;22PeaceSocial justiceHuman rightsRussia—Politics and governmentMiddle East—Politics and governmentPeace Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912070Social Justice, Equality and Human Rightshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33070Russian and Post-Soviet Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911170Middle Eastern Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911160Peace.Social justice.Human rights.Russia—Politics and government.Middle East—Politics and government.Peace Studies.Social Justice, Equality and Human Rights.Russian and Post-Soviet Politics.Middle Eastern Politics.327.1720922Golan Galiaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut525585BOOK9910338029603321Galia Golan: An Academic Pioneer on the Soviet Union, Peace and Conflict Studies, and a Peace and Feminist Activist2545757UNINA
