Buoyed by their victories, they promised to lead a global struggle for the expansion of women's electoral rights. Charting the common trajectory of the colonial suffrage campaigns, Distant Sisters uncovers the personal and material networks that transformed feminist organising. Considering intimate and institutional connections, well-connected elites and ordinary women, this book argues developments in Auckland, Sydney, and Adelaide--long considered the peripheries of the feminist world--cannot be separated from its glamourous metropoles. Focusing on Antipodean women, simultaneously insiders and outsiders in the emerging international women's movement, and documenting the failures of their expansive vision alongside its successes, this book reveals a more contingent history of international organising and challenges celebratory accounts of fin-de-si鐵le global connection.\u003cbr\u003eThis book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 5, Gender equality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Keating\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526140950\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526140951\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/22\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.75d","brand":"James Keating","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43983412822271,"sku":"9781526140951","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_da2568c1-a0a6-4cd6-9e01-d30c8c13fc65.jpg?v=1683266493","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/distant-sisters-james-keating-9781526140951","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
