Rethinking Right-Wing Women explores the institutional structures
for and the representations, mobilisation, and the political
careers of women in the British Conservative Party since the late
19th century. From the Primrose League (est.1883) to Women2Win
(est.2005), the party has exploited women's political commitment
and their social power from the grass-roots to the heights of the
establishment. Yet, although it is the party that extended the
equal franchise, had the first woman MP to sit Parliament, and
produced the first two women Prime Ministers, the UK Conservative
Party has developed political roles for women that jar with
feminist and progressive agendas. Conservative women have tended to
be more concerned about the fulfilment of women's duties than the
realisation of women's rights. This book tackles the ambivalences
between women's politicisation and women's emancipation in the
history of Britain's most electorally successful and hegemonic
political party. -- .
