Housewives and Citizens explores the contribution that five
conservative, voluntary and popular women's organisations made to
women's lives and to the campaign for women's rights throughout the
period 1928-64. The book challenges existing histories of the
women's movement that suggest the movement went into decline during
the inter-war period only to be revived by the emergence of the
Women's Liberation Movement in the late 1960s. It is argued that
the term 'women's movement' must be revised to allow a broader
understanding of female agency encompassing feminist, political,
religious and conservative women's groups who campaigned to improve
the status of women throughout the twentieth century. The book
provides a radical re-assessment of this period of women's history
and in doing so makes a significant contribution to on-going
debates about the shape and the impact of the women's movement in
twentieth century Britain.
