- Description
- Drawing on records of major antisuffrage organizations, Marshall makes clear that antisuffrage women organized to protect gendered class interests. She shows that many of the most vocal antisuffragists were wealthy, educated women who exercised considerable political influence through their personal ties to men in politics as well as by their own positions as leaders of social service committees. Under the guise of defending an ideal of 'true womanhood,' these powerful women sought to keep the vote from lower-class women, fearing it would result in an increase in the 'ignorant vote' and in their own displacement from positions of influence.

- Description
- 'Mannen werken, vrouwen bestieren het huishouden en voeden de kinderen op. Zo is het vanaf het einde van de I 8e eeuw, in de hele l9e en tot ver in de 20e eeuw geweest. Nog steeds herkennen we in Nederlond deze rolverdeling tussen de seksen. Veel vrouwen hebben tegenwoordig wel een baan, moor dat betekent niet dat ze hel koken, wossen en luiers verschonen collectief aan de wilgen gehangen hebben. Onderzoek wiist uit dat het aan het einde van de 2Oe eeuw nog altiid 'moeder de vrouw' was, of ze nu werkt of niet, die de meeste huishoudeliike taken op zich neemt. En in onze tiid is dat niet veel anders.'

- Description
- This book brings together the histories of the women’s peace movement and the black women’s club and social reform movement in a story of community and consciousness building between the world wars. Believing that achievement of improved race relations was a central step in establishing world peace, African American and white women initiated new political alliances that challenged the practices of segregation and promoted the leadership of women in transnational politics. Under the auspices of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF), they united the artistic agenda of the Harlem Renaissance, suffrage-era organizing tactics, and contemporary debates on race in their efforts to expand women’s influence on the politics of war and peace.

- Description
- Originally published in 1977, this book brings together what is known about liberal feminist and socialist movements for the emancipation of women all over the world in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It deals not only with Britain and the United States but also with Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, the Netherlands Russia, Austria-Hungary and the Scandinavian countries. The chapters trace the origins, development, and eventual collapse of these movements in relation to the changing social formations and political structures of Europe, America and Australasia in the era of bourgeois liberalism.The first part of the book discusses the origins of feminist movements and advances a model or ‘ideal type’ description of their development. The second part then takes a number of case studies of individual feminist movements to illustrate the main varieties of organised feminism and the differences from country to country. The third part looks at socialist women’s movements and includes a study of the Socialist Women’s International. A final part touches on the reason for the eclipse of women’s emancipation movements in the half-century following the end of the First World War, before a general conclusion pulls together some of the arguments advanced in earlier chapters and attempts a comparison between these feminist movements of 1840-1920 and the Women’s Liberation Movement.

This book is a comparative study that looks at how these anti-vice campaigns also resulted in the creation of a racial hierarchy in the United States. .Focusing on the intersection of race, gender, and sex in the antiprostitution campaigns, Brian Donovan analyzes the reactions of native-born whites to new immigrant groups in Chicago, to African Americans in New York City, and to Chinese immigrants in San Francisco.

- Description
- This book collects more than sixty literary texts written by writers who experimented with genre, aesthetics, humor, and sex appeal in an effort to persuade American readers to support woman suffrage. Although the suffrage campaign is often associated in popular memory with oratory, this anthology affirms that suffragists recognized early on that literature could also exert a power to move readers to imagine new roles for women in the public sphere. This book samples a tradition of suffrage literature created by writers from diverse racial, class, and regional backgrounds. Beginning with sentimental fiction and polemic, progressing through modernist and middlebrow experiments, and concluding with post-ratification memoirs and tributes, this anthology showcases lost and neglected fiction, poetry, drama, literary journalism, and autobiography. Featured writers include canonical figures such as Stowe, Fern, Alcott, Gilman, Djuna Barnes, Marianne Moore, Millay, Sui Sin Far, and Gertrude Stein, as well as writers popular in their day but lost to ours.

- Description
- In the early twentieth century, women fought for the right to professional employment and political influence outside the home. Yet if liberation from household 'drudgery' meant employing another woman to do it, where did this leave domestic servants? Both inspired and frustrated by the growing feminist movement, servants began forming their own trade unions, demanding better conditions and rights at work. This book tells the history of how these militant maids and their mistresses joined forces in the struggle for the vote but also clashed over competing class interests.

- Description
- The author studies how a group of affluent white women from the late nineteenth through the mid-twentieth centuries advanced the status of all women through acts of philanthropy. Motivated by their own experiences with sexism, and focusing on women's need for economic independence, these benefactors sought to expand women's access to higher education, promote suffrage, and champion reproductive rights, as well as to provide assistance to working-class women. In a time when women still wielded limited political power, philanthropy was perhaps the most potent tool they had.

- Hoewel Afua Hirsch Brits is, vragen mensen toch altijd naar waar ze vandaan komt. Blijkbaar speelt huidskleur een rol daarbij. Hirsch gaat op zoek naar haar identiteit. Via haar eigen levensverhaal probeert ze er achter te komen wat de maatschappelijke betekenis is van ras en identiteit. Duidelijk wordt dat een grote rol speelt dat vanuit Europa-centrische geschiedenis gekeken wordt naar ras en identiteit.

- Description
- This book traces the significance of Frances Wright, Harriet Martineau, Angelina and Sarah Grimké, Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Sojourner Truth in shaping American political thinking. They understood the relationship between sexism, racism and economic inequality. Their efforts to expand the reach of America’s founding ideals laid the groundwork not only for women’s suffrage and the abolition of slavery, but for the broader expansion of civil, political, and human rights that would characterize much of the twentieth century and continues to unfold today.
