  • Leopoldine Kulka
    Leopoldine Kulka Leopoldine Kulka was born in Vienna on March 31 in the year 1872. She was an Austrian writer, feminist and editor. At the University of Vienna she was the first woman lecturer. As editor of “Neues Frauenleben” she controversially met women from combatant countries at the 1915 Women's conference at Hague, where she was one of the significant women attending to the congress. She has a deep understanding for democracy. Kulka joined the radical General Austrian Women's Association (GAWA) before she was thirty. At the start of the century she also became interested in peace issues. Leopoldine was writing regularly for political magazines for women. In 1902 Auguste Fickert started an Austrian magazine which she called “Neues Frauenleben” with Kulka as its editor. Leopoldine Kulka was a historian of literature. In 1904 she and Adele Gerber went to Berlin to help found the International Women's Suffrage Alliance. In 1911 she became vice- president of the GAWA. In 1914 she had helped translate Women and Labour by Olive Schreiner into German. The South African Schreiner argued that women understood the value of life more than men. Despite a lot of debate about the value of a women's peace conference she was the delegate chosen in 1915. She traveled to The Hague where she represented Austria. This was during the first World War but even then she raised 1,000 signatures of support. She and Olga Meser were supported by the magazine “Neues Frauenleben”. On their return they both made reports to the magazine about the conference noting the difficulties that some delegates had in attending the conference.

Kimble and Marion Röwekamp DePaul University (Chicago, USA) Marion Röwekamp Wilhelm and Alexander von Humboldt Chair of the DAAD, Colegio de México (Mexico City, Mexico) EXCLUSION AND INCLUSION IN THE LEGAL PROFESSIONS: NEGOTIATING GENDER IN CENTRAL AND EAST CENTRAL EUROPE, 1887–1945 Abstract This article examines the struggle by women to gain access to higher education opportunities in law and to secure the right to work in the legal profession between the 1880s through the 1940s in Central and East Central Europe. Activists chal- lenged the exclusion of women from universities and the field of law by testing meritocratic and democratic principles or holding to account constitutional com- mitments to equality. The lawyers’ movement they subsequently created acted as a spearhead for the legal wing of the women’s emancipation movement that sought to reform women’s rights in national legislation and the civil codes. These processes were integral to the negotiation of gender roles in Central European countries from the late-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries. Moreover, the rise of pan-European female lawyers’ associations illustrates the broader significance of these legal struggles. In the history of the women’s rights movements, the right to work in the legal professions and in civil service was also integral to the larger struggle for full citizenship rights. Keywords: Comparative women’s legal history, history of the legal professions, women’s rights movements, gender discrimination, gender equality, women’s legal status, judges, attorneys, legal practice, citizenship, civil code reform, Central Europe, East Central Europe I INTRODUCTION The heart of this article is an analysis of the history of gender and feminism within the legal sciences.

  • (Soviet) Russian WILPF Section, 1915-1925 a Little Known Episode in Feminist Transnational Peace History
    Early Endeavors to Establish a (Soviet) Russian WILPF Section, 1915-1925 A Little Known Episode in Feminist Transnational Peace History di Laurie R. Cohen * Abstract: In this empirically researched paper I investigate transnational – specifically Russian, European and American – documentation of women peace activists, roughly from 1915 to the mid-1920s. After addressing the historiographic absence of known Soviet Russian female or male pacifists, I then examine the course of World War I mobilization of transnational women peace activists, particularly the women’s peace conferences in The Hague in 1915 and in Zurich in 1919. In the third part I focus on specific interwar networking attempts by individuals and the WILPF as a whole, to initiate a Russian section. In short, this paper looks at why an organized Soviet Russian feminist peace movement failed to be established. “It is as revolutionists that Russian women are famous.”(Madeleine Doty, 1918, p. IX ) Although Lev Tolstoy’s epic late nineteenth-century historical novel War and Peace belongs to the greatest and most well-known works of anti-war world literature, one is, paradoxically, hard pressed to find academic studies on Soviet Russian pacifism or antiwar activists. Indeed, the most common themes taken up by scholars of Soviet Russia focus on antitheses of peace: terrorism, revolutionary violence, wars, pogroms, famine, and the Gulag. It would seem that everyday * Laurie R. Cohen, Dr.phil., is a historian specializing in European (including Russian) history. She teaches courses at the University of Innsbruck on gender studies and political social movements, and has published on Nobel Peace Prize laureate Bertha von Suttner, on Mohandas Gandhi, and on everyday wartime occupation.

  • 8. Aletta Henriëtte Jacobs 1854 –1929
    8. Aletta Henriëtte Jacobs 1854 –1929 ‘Fighting for what is right, makes life worth living’. Zo kennen we haar, een vrouw die kracht uitstraalde, aandacht en liefde, en die zichzelf niet spaarde. Aletta is in Nederland bekend als de eerste vrouwelijke huisarts. Zij vocht voor de rechten en de gezondheid van vrouwen in een tijd waarin deze onder rechteloosheid, armoede en slechte gezondheid leden. Vanaf het begin van haar loopbaan ontwikkelde zij een groot talent voor de omgang met gezaghebbende kringen, die haar politieke en sociale doelen zouden kunnen steunen. Als overtuigd voorvechtster voor het vrouwenkiesrecht vervulde zij een belangrijke rol in de (inter)nationale beweging. In die kring nam zij in 1914, na het uitbreken van de Eerste Wereldoorlog, het besluit de vrouwenstrijd te verbinden met het verzet tegen de oorlog. De kiesrechtvrouwen konden voor hun congres niet in Berlijn terecht, maar toen dat helemaal afgezegd werd nam zij het voortouw, samen met Rosa Manus en geïnspireerd door Chrystal Macmillan. Zij nodigde alle vrouwen uit naar Den Haag te komen voor een Congres of Women, dat door de Nederlandse afdeling georganiseerd zou worden. ‘In the dreadfull times, in which so much hate has been spread among the different nations, the women have to show that we at least retain our solidarity and that we are able to maintain mutual friendship’. De doelstelling was duidelijk: oproepen tot vrede, met internationale solidariteit en vrouwelijke kracht. Op 28 april 1915 sprak Aletta de openingsrede uit, Jane Addams werd de presidente. Het werd een goed congres. Aletta en Rosa Manus bleven tot 1919 zorgen voor het internationale werk.

  • Across a Feminist-Pacifist Divide Baroness Bertha Von Suttner's Tour
    412-20361_06 02.11.2009 14:51 Uhr Seite 85 L’Homme. Z. F. G. 20, 2 (2009) Extra Across a Feminist-Pacifist Divide Baroness Bertha von Suttner’s Tour of the United States in 1912 Laurie R. Cohen* Introduction In late May 1912, 69-year-old Austrian-Hungarian Baroness Bertha von Suttner left her home in Vienna and headed for New York. Although she had been in the United States eight years earlier, spending three weeks in and around the East Coast, this present visit would be more rigorous. Six months of coast-to-coast lectures in front of a variety of women’s groups and peace groups – sometimes separate, sometimes joined – awaited her. The general focus was mutual international exchange – an opportunity for Suttner to become better acquainted with “the land of unlimited possibilities” and for working and middle-class Americans to experience firsthand this female European icon and pioneer pacifist: author of the internationally acclaimed 1889 antiwar novel “Die Waffen nieder!” (Lay Down Your Arms!), first woman „Nobel Peace Prize“ laureate (1905), and author of “The Records of an Eventful Life”, the English translation of Suttner’s memoirs, documenting her autodidactic education, her marriage to a man seven years her junior, her writing career, and her leadership in the international peace movement.1 * I would like to thank Ingrid Bauer, Nikola Langreiter and the anonymous peer reviewers for their critical readings, as well as the Austrian Research Fund (FWF) for its support (Project V34-G14). 1 Memoirs of Bertha von Suttner.

By placing the disagreement within the larger context of the international women’s movement at the turn of the century, I argue that Fickert’s vision on women’s organizations differed from Lang’s: Fickert fostered the transnational role of the periodical press, whereas Lang invested in a local approach. Although conflict has been considered a constitutive aspect of the periodical press, it has not been examined before in light of German feminist periodicals, such as Dokumente der Frauen (1899–1902), which Fickert co-edited for some time with Lang and Rosa Mayreder (1858–1938) and Neues Frauenleben (1902–17), of which she was the sole editor from 1902 to 1910.

  • Tritonmun Xxi Character Descriptions International Congress of Women at the Hague
    TRITONMUN XXI CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF WOMEN AT THE HAGUE *NOTE: not all of these characters will be assigned in committee* Armenia Lucy Thoumaian Lucy Thoumaian was an Armenian pacifist.

    VORWORT UND GRUSSWORTE 2 VON DER VERGANGENHEIT LERNEN, VON DER GEGENWART INSPIRIERT UND VISIONÄR FÜR DIE ZUKUNFT BLEIBEN Vorwort von Heidi Meinzolt Vielleicht fragen Sie sich: Was hat eine Frau- enfriedenskonferenz 1919 mit 2019 zu tun? Lassen Sie uns 100 Jahre zurückschauen: Viele Frauen in europäischen Ländern und in der Welt bekommen zu diesem Zeitpunkt ihr Wahlrecht – unter historisch und poli- tisch sehr unterschiedlichen Rahmenbe- dingungen und nach einem langer Kampf der Stimmrechtsbewegung und der Akti- vistinnen. In manchen Ländern mussten jedoch die Frauen viel länger auf diesen Schritt zur Gleichberechtigung warten und viele Forderungen der Frauenbewegung sind bis heute nicht erfüllt oder sie sind zumindest (wieder) umstritten. Der Kampf ums Stimmrecht war immer ein strategisches Schlüsselelement für Gleichberechtigung und die Beteiligung an demokratischen Prozessen. Gleichzeitig erhoben viele Frauen ihre Stimme, um Kriege zu stoppen und den Frieden zu bereiten. Sie kamen teilweise aus einem sozialistischen Hintergrund oder gehörten zu den radikal-bürgerlichen Pazifistinnen. Ihre Analyse der Ursachen von Krieg und Gewalt war eindeutig: sie prangerten die unheilige Allianz von Patriarchat, Industrie und Militär an. „Die Wirt- schaft muss den Bedürfnissen der Menschen dienen, und nicht denen von Profit und Privilegien!“ (Lida Gustava Heymann 1915). Das klingt auch nach über 100 Jahren feministischen Engagements sehr aktuell! In 100 Jahren feministischen Kampfes wurde eine Menge erreicht: Das Frauenwahlrecht ist eine Selbstverständlichkeit – auch wenn ein gleichbe- 3 rechtigter Zugang zu Wahlen nicht überall gewährt ist, die Anzahl weibli- cher Abgeordnete im Parlament teilweise rückläufig ist und fast nirgends auf der Welt 50% erreicht. Gender Mainstreaming hat Eingang in viele Leitlinien und in die politische Praxis gefunden – ein Gender Pay Gap und ein Defizit bei der Besetzung von Spitzenpositionen durch Frauen, von der Wirtschaft bis zur akademischen Lehre, aber bleibt.
