Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The important political motivations behind why women finally won the right to vote In the 1880s, women were barred from voting in all national-level elections, but by 1920 they were going to the polls in nearly thirty countries. What caused this massive change? Why did male politicians agree to extend voting rights to women? Contrary to conventional wisdom, it was not because of progressive ideas about women or suffragists’ pluck. In most countries, elected politicians fiercely resisted enfranchising women, preferring to extend such rights only when it seemed electorally prudent and in fact necessary to do so. Through a careful examination of the tumultuous path to women’s political inclusion in the United States, France, and the United Kingdom, Forging the Franchise demonstrates that the formation of a broad movement across social divides, and strategic alliances with political parties in competitive electoral conditions, provided the leverage that ultimately transformed women into voters. As Dawn Teele shows, in competitive environments, politicians had incentives to seek out new sources of electoral influence. A broad-based suffrage movement could reinforce those incentives by providing information about women’s preferences, and an infrastructure with which to mobilize future female voters. At the same time that politicians wanted to enfranchise women who were likely to support their party, suffragists also wanted to enfranchise women whose political preferences were similar to theirs. In contexts where political rifts were too deep, suffragists who were in favor of the vote in principle mobilized against their own political emancipation. Exploring tensions between elected leaders and suffragists and the uncertainty surrounding women as an electoral group, Forging the Franchise sheds new light on the strategic reasons behind women’s enfranchisement.

Excerpt: ...to which they were formerly indifferent. It is beginning to dawn upon the consciousness of every woman that her little world is part of the world at large, and that the solution of her problems lies in the solution of community problems. She is beginning to realize that the price of her dinner is voted up and down at election time; that safety of the lives of her children from disease is now a political matter; that the moral conditions surrounding her boy and her girl, when they step from the home into the outer world, are matters controlled by the ballot. How can anyone imagine that she would be willing to remain peacefully at home, unmindful of her duty toward her children? Can anyone imagine that, with the education and awakening of the modern woman, she would go along without interest in community affairs, even if she has no children to be cared for? She has been taught to read and write, the natural result of which is to think; therefore, it is logical that she should demand the most simple and direct method of having her voice count in the solution of these problems. It is idle to say to the average woman of today, " Your place" is within the four walls of your house." It may be admitted that woman's sphere could be thus defined in the days when everything was made at home, and the housewife held control of all the forces affecting her dominion; but with the changed economic conditions the home also has changed, and for her own protection she too must have a voice and a hand in determining the problems which so decidedly affect the welfare of those she holds most dear. We are reminded by those opposing suffrage that there are still problems of the hearthstone to be solved; that when the domestic-servant problem is solved, and not...

Asks one of Galsworthy's characters in The Free lands. SO at times prejudices do seem so in grained that words are futile, especially when one tries to present so colossal a cause as justice to women. But, after all, there is a faith within those Of us who believe in a better order, which keeps alive the hope that the many minds making up pub lic opinion may eventually become harmonized and that the ballot will be granted women. In the hope of playing some part toward bringing about this order, this volume is written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book For His Eyes Only written by Lisa Funnell and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The release of Skyfall in 2012 marked the fiftieth anniversary of the James Bond film franchise. It earned over one billion dollars in the worldwide box office and won two Academy Awards. Amid popular and critical acclaim, some have questioned the representation of women in the film. From an aging M to the limited role of the Bond Girl and the characterization of Miss Moneypenny as a defunct field agent, Skyfall develops the legacy of Bond at the expense of women. Since Casino Royale (2006) and its sequels Quantum of Solace (2008) and Skyfall constitute a reboot of the franchise, it is time to question whether there is a place for women in the new world of James Bond and what role they will play in the future of series. This volume answers these questions by examining the role that women have historically played in the franchise, which greatly contributed to the international success of the films. This academic study constitutes the first book-length anthology on femininity and feminism in the Bond series. It covers all twenty-three Eon productions as well as the spoof Casino Royale (1967), considering a range of factors that have shaped the depiction of women in the franchise, including female characterization in Ian Fleming's novels; the vision of producer Albert R. Broccoli and other creative personnel; the influence of feminism; and broader trends in British and American film and television. The volume provides a timely look at women in the Bond franchise and offers new scholarly perspectives on the subject.

Book excerpt: The object of this essay is to explain as clearly as I am able, the grounds of an opinion which I have held from the very earliest period when I had formed any opinions at all on social or political matters, and which, instead of being weakened or modified, has been constantly growing stronger by the progress of reflection and the experience of life: That the principle which regulates the existing social relations between the two sexes- the legal subordination of one sex to the other- is wrong in itself, and now one of the chief hindrances to human improvement ; and that is ought to be replaced by a principle of perfect equality, admitting no power or privilege on the one side, nor disability on the other.
