- Title
Forging the Franchise: The Political Origins of the Women's Vote.
- Authors
GULLACE, NICOLETTA F.
- Abstract
Using this theory, Teele explains quite plausibly how women in the United States and Great Britain were able to take advantage of political divisions and create mass movements that won them opportunistic allies among certain male political parties. Dawn Teele's I Forging the Franchise i uses the tools of social science to theorise why the enfranchisement of women took place at vastly different times in a variety of seemingly similar contexts. Teele thus seeks to explain why France delayed the women's vote until 1944, while its English-speaking counterparts granted it in the aftermath of the First World War.
