  • Feminism? International Women's Rights Congresses at the Paris
    ‘International’ Feminism? International Women’s Rights Congresses at the Paris World Exhibitions, 1878 – 1900 By Lauren Stephens Submitted to the department of Gender Studies Central European University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of European Master in Women’s and Gender History Supervisor: Francisca de Haan, Central European University Second Reader: Marianne Thivend, Université Lumière Lyon 2 Budapest, Hungary 2014 CEU eTD Collection Lauren Stephens „International‟ Feminism? MA Matilda: Women‟s and Gender History Supervisor: Francisca de Haan Abstract The 1878 International Congress of the Rights of Women, the 1889 French and International Congress of the Rights of Women and the 1900 International Congress of the Condition and Rights of Women took place during the third, fourth and fifth World Exhibitions held in Paris. Their organisers combined a trend for international social movements with a new way to address the priorities of the French women‟s movement. This thesis is based upon a close analytical reading of the discussions and resolutions of each of these congresses and their reports in contemporary newspapers Le Figaro, Le Gaulois, Journal des Débats Politiques et Littéraires and La Presse. It seeks to interpret the feminism articulated by contributors and organisers of these congresses within their context as features of a new internationalist fashion during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. This thesis argues, firstly, that the organisers of these events sought to use the new fashion for international social movements to highlight the validity of their claims for women‟s rights. This was intended to help convince French politicians, intellectuals and writers of the need for legal changes in women‟s status.

  • 16. Stockholm & Brussels 1911 & 1912: a Feminist
    1 16. STOCKHOLM & BRUSSELS 1911 & 1912: A FEMINIST INTERNATIONAL? You must realize that there is not only the struggle for woman Suffrage, but that there is another mighty, stormy struggle going on all over the world, I mean the struggle on and near the labour market. Marie Rutgers-Hoitsema 1911 International Woman Suffrage Alliance (IWSA) became effective because it concentrated on one question only. The Alliance (it will be the short word for the IWSA) wanted to show a combatant and forceful image. It was of importance to have many followers and members. Inside the Alliance, there was no room to discuss other aspect of women's citizenship, only the political. This made it possible for women who did not want to change the prevalent gender division of labor to become supporters. The period saw an increase of the ideology about femininity and maternity, also prevalent in the suffrage movement. But some activists did not stop placing a high value on the question of woman's economic independence, on her economic citizenship. They wanted a more comprehensive emancipation because they believed in overall equality. Some of these feminists took, in Stockholm in 1911, the initiative to a new international woman organization. As IWSA once had been planned at an ICW- congress (in London in 1899) they wanted to try a similar break-out-strategy. IWSA held its sixth international congress in June in the Swedish capital. It gathered 1 200 delegates.1 The organization, founded in opposition to the shallow enthusiasm for suffrage inside the ICW, was once started by radical women who wanted equality with men.

Le droit de vote pour les f 1949 : Enfin «une femme, une voix»Le droit de vote pour les femmes Avant 1949, les femmes n’ont jamais été explicitement exclues du droit de vote. La Constitution de 1831 accorde le droit de vote pour la Chambre aux « citoyens payant le cens déterminé par la loi électorale ». Il n’est précisé nulle part que ce droit est réservé aux hommes1. Le fait que les femmes ne puissent pas voter est visiblement considéré comme une évidence. emmes. C’est dans la mentalité de l’époque. En 1830, les femmes mariées ont peu de droits: sur le plan juri- dique, elles se trouvent au même niveau qu’un enfant mineur. C’est pourquoi la lutte en faveur du droit de vote des femmes est indissociable de la lutte générale pour l’égalité juridique et économique de la femme. Mais des motivations politiques entrent aussi en jeu: les partis libéral et socialiste craignent que les femmes, influencées par le clergé, votent surtout en faveur du parti catholique et ils s’opposent dès lors longtemps au droit de vote des femmes. Alors que pour les hommes, le suffrage universel plural est instauré en 1893, et le suffrage universel pur et simple en 1919, les femmes devront attendre jusqu’en 1949 pour pouvoir voter pour la première fois à des élections nationales. Grâce à la participation des femmes aux élections législatives, le nombre des électeurs fait un bond de 28 % à 58 % de la population.

  • Women's Congresses in Paris 1892 & 1896
    1 Translation, preliminary, from Feminism, familj och medborgarskap. Debatter på internationella kongresser om nattarbetsförbud för kvinnor 1889-1919. Stockholm: Makadam 2006, both book and translation by Ulla Wikander [email protected] to you Marilyn Boxer with thanks for cooperation and for the book on Clara Zetkin. 6. EQUALITY CLAIMED: WOMEN’S CONGRESSES IN PARIS 1892 & 1896 Radical women started to call themselves “feminists” in Paris around the year 1890. Marya Chéliga-Loévy used it positively in writing, describing the group of women she was active in. Chéliga-Loévy should be given credit for spreading the word as a denomination for women working for equality with men in a all respects. At the end of 1891 the Féderation françaises des sociétés féministes was founded, with the aim of uniting all radical French women’s organisations. It was the first one to call itself feminist.1 These feminists of the 1890’s wanted legal equality and organised to obtain an integration of women in society as equal citizens. They were not an organisation for women only, in principle. Men were welcome to join. Some men were present at the international feminist congresses in Paris, as supportive activists, invited guests or of pure interest. The congresses which later in time chose to be called feminist are – in addition to the two congresses of this chapter - also Le Congrès Féministe International de Bruxelles in 1897 and in 1912. All four congresses asked for equality ("égalité") including suffrage. The first feminist congress to be an official congress at a World Exposition was the International feminist congress in Brussels 1897.2 The congresses in Brussels were not socialist but definitely feminist whereas the two congresses in Paris wanted to be both, trying to integrate two new political ideologies still not rigid, still contested.

This was notable as women had outnumbered men for the previous few years. Aside from superficial interest, I have never paid much attention to the gender composition of any of my classes or programs. In deciding to go to law school, I wor- ried about my academic performance and whether I would make a good lawyer. Gender never entered the picture. This does not mean gender is no longer a basis of inequality in society in general or the legal profession in particular or that I am unaffected by sex-specific attitudes and behaviours. Gender remains a live issue; however, growing up in the late twentieth century, there was nothing remarkable to me about women in university, just as there was nothing unusual about having a female doctor or professor. It turns out I am wrong: there is much to be remarked on. The story of the entry of women into the legal professions is told in Mary Jane Mossman’s book, The First Women Lawyers.1 Her book compares women’s experiences in North American, Europe, India and Australasia from the later half of the nineteenth through the early twenti- eth century. In chronicling women’s emergence as legal professionals the book also charts the evolution of law as a profession, the increasing access for women to higher education, and the movement of women out of the private sphere and into the public.
