5. From feminism to class politics : the rise and decline of women's politics in Reykjavík 1908-1922
Sammanfattning : The main objective of this dissertation is to seek answers to three questions: 1) Why did it take so much longer for women than men to win the vote? 2) Why did it take women so long to be elected in any numbers to national legislatures?, and 3) What has been the political significance of women's entry into national legislatures?

An empirical study on Iceland is used to examine this aspect in detail. LÄS MER
