According to Allen, motherhood and citizenship are terms that are
closely linked and have been redefined over the past century due to
changes in women's status, feminist movements, and political
developments. Mother-child relationships were greatly affected by
political decisions during the early 1900s, and the maternal role
has been transformed over the years. To understand the dilemmas
faced by women concerning motherhood and work, for example, Allen
argues that the problem must be examined in terms of its
demographic and political development through history. Allen
highlights the feminist movements in Western Europe - primarily
Britain, France, Germany and the Netherlands, and explores the
implications of the maternal role for women's aspirations to the
rights of citizenship. Among the topics Allen explores the history
of the maternal role, psychoanalysis and theories on the
mother-child relationship, changes in family law from 1890-1914,
the economic status of mothers, and reproductive responsibility.
