Recenzii
'This is an important book on an elusive topic - one that historians have not yet fully made sense of.' H. Robert Baker, Georgia State University
'In this heroically researched and fascinating study of gender ideology, law, and governance in the outlier territory of Washington, Sandra F. VanBurkleo underscores the contrast and interplay between natural law with its universalist assumptions and culturalist defenses for women's suffrage. By focusing on the local arena, she ties opposition to prohibition and temperance to big questions of state building and citizenship under an expanding capitalist economy to produce the most convincing portrait yet of the legal struggle for suffrage. Just as one of her fascinating protagonists, Justice Greene, argued for undivided rights, so VanBurkleo links realms too often studied apart. She shows the interconnection between gender systems and political questions (suffrage, protective labor legislation, married women's property rights and domestic relations law, and constitution making.) Gender Remade is a most important work.' Eileen Boris, University of California, Santa Barbara
