Women Moving. Resistance, Protest, and the Fight for Women's Suffrage

Description

Resistance, protest, and the fight for women's suffrage. What women are changing in politics and the role gender plays. Why slow-moving men are caught off guard and why suddenly nothing works anymore. Why marriage brings fewer rights and who looks after the sick Emma. The introduction of women's suffrage and voting rights in Switzerland was preceded by decades of struggle, even in Bern. What now seems obvious was hard-fought back then. Much has changed, some things remain (un)equal. We take a mid-term look at equality issues.
