The Politics of Women's Suffrage: Local, National and International Dimensions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781912702961)

Women's suffrage was the most significant challenge to the constitution since 1832, seeking not only to settle demands for inclusion and justice but to expand and redefine definitions of citizenship. This book advances ongoing debates within suffrage history whilst also bringing new materials and methodologies to the fore. This collection is a reminder of the ways in which women have often encountered and battled a hostile political climate, but pushed forward with determination, skill, tenacity and optimism: resonating with the renewed interest in women's history and feminist politics today.
