Rövid leírás:
Women's suffrage is often recognized as one of the most significant political events of the 20th century. But conventional wisdom has long held that giving women the right to vote has had little effect on our world. The Suffragist Peace shatters this perspective. An authoritative history of the entire century in which women have had the vote, this book shows how the political influence of women at the ballot box has made the world a more peaceful place. Wars have not ended, but this book powerfully demonstrates how women gaining the franchise has contributed to war's decline over the past century.
Hosszú leírás:
A deep and historical examination of how the political influence of women at the ballot box has shaped the course of war and peace.
In the modern age, some parts of the world are experiencing a long peace. Nuclear weapons, capitalism and the widespread adoption of democratic institutions have been credited with fostering this relatively peaceful period. Yet, these accounts overlook one of the most dramatic transformations of the 20th century: the massive redistribution of political power as millions of women around the world won the right to vote.
Through gripping history and careful reasoning, this book examines how the political influence of women at the ballot box has shaped war and peace. What would a world ruled by women look like? For more than a hundred years, conventional wisdom held that women's votes had little effect. That view is changing - it turns out that women voters had a profound effect on the world we know and in ways we hardly understand. A world ruled by women's voices is a world that is less willing to fall in love with war as a noble end in itself, less prone to lapse into violence for the sake of maintaining an image. In other words, it is the world we live in now, more so than we have ever realized.
