Samenvatting | Focus on various ways in which women were active and organized themselves in order to question sex and gender related issues in the political arena. The authors discuss how women protested against perceived religious suppression: particpated in local democratic political institutions whilst not really changing gender roles: discussed discrepancies between socialism and feminism. They explore how women find their ways in democratic systems of governance and what these systems offer women in terms of emancipation and involvement in political decision making affecting their lives.
