A hundred years later almost all countries had enfranchised women and it was a sign of backwardness not to have done so. This is the story of how this momentous change came about. The first genuinely global history of women and the vote it takes the story of women in politics from the earliest times to the present day revealing startling new connections across time and national boundaries - from Europe and North America to Asia Africa Latin America and the Muslim world post - 9\/11. A story of individuals as well as of wider movements it includes the often dramatic life - stories of women's suffrage pioneers from across the world painting vivid biographical portraits of everyone from Susan B. Anthony and the Pankhursts to hitherto lesser - known activists in China Latin America and Africa. It is also the first major post - feminist history of women's struggle for the vote. Controversially Jad Adams rejects the widely accepted idea that success was primarily a result of the pressure group politics of the suffragists and their supporters. Ultimately he argues it was nationalism not feminism that was the most important factor in winning women the vote.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Women And The Vote A World History\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Adams Jad (Associate Research Fellow Associate Research Fellow School Of Advanced Study University Of London)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780198706847\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 530 Pages, 27 Integrated Black \u0026amp; White Halftones\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 11\/18\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Political Activism","brand":"Adams Jad (Associate Research Fellow Associate Research Fellow School Of Advanced Study University Of London)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49591923212593,"sku":"IN-G-9780198706847","price":73.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780198706847.jpg?v=1761276968","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780198706847-women-and-the-vote-a-world-history","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
