In historical writing the interwar years are often associated with the rise of extreme forms of nationalism. Yet paradoxically this period also saw significant advances in the development of internationalism and international-mindedness. This collection examines previously under-researched aspects of the role played by women’s movements and individual female activists in this process. Women campaigners contributed to, and helped to (re)define, what constituted international work in myriad ways. For some, particularly those coming from a radical pacifist background, the central theme after 1919 was the eradication of war and the preservation of world peace. Yet others were more interested in the sharing of medical knowledge across borders, in the promotion of new causes such as physical fitness or the cultural assimilation of immigrants, or in finding fresh and innovative ways of battling for old causes, such as female suffrage and women’s access to education. It was even possible for nationalist women to use the language and practices of internationalism to further their own conservative, illiberal or anti-communist agendas, or to argue for revision of the peace treaties of 1919-20. The volume addresses these different kinds of activism, and the many links between them, by way of particular examples. This book was originally published as a special issue of Women’s History Review.

This five volume set deals in detail with Josephine Butler's campaign for the repeal of the Contagious Diseases Acts in Britain and the Colonies. At present, access to Butler's work is restricted as a number of relevant anthologies are out of print. The bulk of these can only be read in specialist libraries and the original copies are becoming increasingly fragile after a century of use. This edited collection makes her writing accessible once again, setting it in an appropriate historical context.In addition to Butler's own work, the thematically ordered volumes include related texts which are important for understanding her campaign. This allows the reader to position Josephine Butler in relation to her opponents and to follow the response to her activities. All the texts are complete and reproduced in facsimile - there are pamphlets, books, media responses to Butler's activities, letters to The Times, articles from The Lancet, Pall Mall Gazette, The Shield and The Dawn as well as private letters both to and from Butler. The set is introduced through a substantial essay by Jane Jordan, one of the leading international scholars on Butler's life and works, and each volume contains a short introduction by the editors which contextualises the selections.Butler writes clearly and vividly, combining impeccable logic with passionate commitment. She does not soften her message to protect the sensibilities of her audience. She is uncompromising in her analysis, determined to 'set a floodlight on your doings' as she told a stunned royal commission in 1871. Josephine Butler and the Prostitution Campaigns demonstrates the great importance of this fascinating campaigner's work.

Socialist Women and the Great War: Protest, Revolution and Commemoration, an open access book, is the first transnational study of left-wing women and socialist revolution during the First World War and its aftermath. Through a discussion of the key themes related to women and revolution, such as anti-militarism and violence, democracy and citizenship, and experience and life-writing, this book sheds new and necessary light on the everyday lives of socialist women in the early 20th century. The participants of the 1918-1919 revolutions in Europe, and the accompanying outbreaks of social unrest elsewhere in the world, have typically been portrayed as war-weary soldiers and suited committee delegates—in other words, as men. Exceptions like Rosa Luxemburg exist, but ordinary women are often cast as passive recipients of the vote. This is not true; rather, women were pivotal actors in the making, imagining, and remembering of the social and political upheavals of this time. From wartime strikes, to revolutionary violence, to issues of suffrage, this book reveals how women constructed their own revolutionary selves in order to bring about lasting social change and provides a fresh comparative approach to women's socialist activism. As such, this is a vitally important resource for all postgraduates and advanced undergraduates interested in gender studies, international relations, and the history and legacy of World War I.The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollection.com.

This book examines the gendered dimensions of vulnerability, care, and humanitarianism before, during and after the First World War. It explores how war disrupts societal structures, transforms care relationships, and reinforces or challenges gendered hierarchies. It analyses how wartime welfare and care work—carried out by individuals, charities, and state institutions—reflected power structures, formed identities and influenced post-war political activism. This book uses interdisciplinary approaches and creates conversations across national and disciplinary borders, covering Western, Central and Eastern Europe. Topics include auto/biographical studies of care-givers, showing how their wartime experiences fed into their post-war identities and how they shaped understandings and structures of care work. By foregrounding care and welfare as central to wartime experiences, it provides new insights into the long-term social and political impacts of war, offering historical perspectives relevant to contemporary global conflicts and crises. This book therefore identifies emerging questions and directions within First World War Gender Studies, as well as reflecting on continuities and changes within contemporary theories of how gender is bound up with militarism, warfare, and conflict resolution.

Diese Ausgabe von "L''Homme. Z. F. G." widmet sich einem kritischen Rückblick auf nationale Erinnerungs- und Wissenschaftskulturen zum Ersten Weltkrieg. Dabei geht es primär um die Frage, inwieweit im schon 2012 einsetzenden Boom der darauf bezogenen wissenschaftlichen wie medial-öffentlichen Aktivitäten frauen- und geschlechtergeschichtliche Zugänge eine Rolle gespielt haben. Die Bilanzen der Fallstudien zu Deutschland/Österreich, Frankreich/Großbritannien, Italien, Portugal und Ungarn fallen unterschiedlich aus. In allen Beispielen zeigt sich aber, dass – wenn überhaupt – vor allem frauengeschichtliche Themen integriert wurden beziehungsweise das analytische Potenzial der Kategorie Geschlecht kaum ausgeschöpft wurde, um überkommene historiografische Konzepte oder Narrative zum Ersten Weltkrieg zu dezentralisieren und neu auszurichten.Aus dem Inhalt: Der Erste Weltkrieg in Deutschland und Österreich in frauen- und geschlechtergeschichtlicher Perspektive / Visual Representations of Women''s Contribution to the First World War in France and Britain / Remembering the Great War in Portugal and Gender Perspectives / Commemoration Projects and Historiography in Hungary / Geschlechterspezifische Erinnerungsdiskurse in Italien / Gedenken an den Kriegswiderstand in Großbritannien / Im Gespräch mit Margaret R. Higonnet / Geschlechterbilder und -praktiken in der kaiserlichen Marine am Beispiel von Martin Niemöller.This issue of "L''Homme. Z. F. G." addresses a critical retro-perspective on national memory and academic cultures of the First World War. It specially focuses on the question of how far female and gender historical approaches played a role in the emerging boom in 2012 concerning the scientific and, media-public activities. The conclusions of the surveys regarding Germany/Austria, France/UK, Italy, Portugal and Hungary are various. However, in all examples it becomes clear that - if considered at all - especially female historical subjects were integrated or the analytical potential of the category gender was merely taken into consideration in order to decentralise and reshape historiographical concepts or narratives of the First Wold War.

Much of the recent literature on cultural demobilisation or remobilisation after the First World War has focused on men and masculinity. By contrast, this interdisciplinary volume of essays sets out to examine the importance of women’s movements and individual female activists to the shaping of post-war Europe at the private, communal, national and transnational levels. Key themes include the commemoration of the war dead; the renegotiation of gender roles; suffrage and political rights; and women’s contribution to the establishment of new visions of peace or national revenge and regeneration in the years 1918 to 1923. The eighteen chapters cover countries in Central and Eastern Europe, as well as Western Europe, and defeated as well as victorious nations, thus allowing for a more nuanced understanding of the deep impact of the war and its aftermath on the continent as a whole.Contributors are Nikolai Vukov, Emma Schiavon, Christiane Streubel, Erika Kuhlman, Ann Rea, Ingrid Sharp, Olga Shnyrova, Fatmira Musaj and Beryl Nicholson, Christine Bard, Gabriella Hauch, Judith Szapor, Sylwia Kuźma-Markowska, Virginija Jurėnienė, Judit Acsády, Matthew Stibbe, Bruce Berglund, David Hudson and Jill Liddington.
