This book tells the story of the British ‘votes for women’ campaign in a sequence of 100 objects. From the beginning of the campaign in 1866 until all women were granted the vote on the same terms as men in 1928, women used every means in their power to persuade the government to allow them the right to elect members of parliament. Through the analysis of an astonishing array of objects – including books, bags, petitions, posters, plays, photographs, china, leaflets, newspapers, games, jewellery, sashes, films, and figurines - The British Women’s Suffrage Movement in 100 Objects explores the role that material culture played in this vital struggle. Each of the 100 objects is illustrated, the accompanying text setting it in its context to explain the campaign’s politics and the part played by key personalities.

This book tells the story of the British ‘votes for women’ campaign in a sequence of 100 objects. From the beginning of the campaign in 1866 until all women were granted the vote on the same terms as men in 1928, women used every means in their power to persuade the government to allow them the right to elect members of parliament. Through the analysis of an astonishing array of objects – including books, bags, petitions, posters, postcards, plays, photographs, china, chess sets, leaflets, newspapers, games, jewellery, scarves, badges, belts, sashes, rosettes, films, and figurines - The British Women’s Suffrage Movement in 100 Objects explores the role that material culture played in this vital struggle.Elizabeth Crawford looks at how, during the sixty-year campaign, items that played any part in life were put to work for ‘votes for women’, as suffrage activists both used and abused buildings, transport, and communications. These included not only objects created by the campaigners to influence public opinion, but also those produced by commercial firms to capitalise on the extraordinary publicity generated by the ‘votes for women’ movement.Every one of the 100 objects included in this highly illustrated book represents a stage in the journey to equal citizenship. Among them are many our ancestors could have had in their homes or noticed in the street. Using the words of suffrage campaigners and their contemporaries, the accompanying text sets each object in context, with passages explaining politics and key personalities included throughout.

International private law had become increasingly legislation based and subject to European and global regulation. It is essential for students to have ready access to the statutes and other core materials.

It includes UK and Scottish statutes and statutory instruments, EU materials and International Conventions. New material includes the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended by the 2020 Act, and the 2019 Hague Convention, and covers prospective amendments relating to jurisdiction and family law consequent to the UK’s exit from the EU. Amended provisions are reproduced in parallel with the current law.
