ISSN: 0028-6060
Highlights the centrality of 'socialist-feminism' to the movement. Instead of insisting on a fundamental antagonism between feminism and socialism, modern socialist-feminists accept the tension and aim to create a powerful progressive politics. Presents a consideration of the origins of the woman-suffrage demand in conjunction with the revolutions of 1848, and its temporary disappearance in the conservative decades that followed. Examines left-wing partriarchalism and the life of the leading woman of the SPD, Clara Zetkin. (SJK)
