Women now constituted the majority of voters, and political parties were forced to address them as political actors for the first time. Analyzing written and visual propaganda aimed at, and frequently produced by, women across the political spectrum--including the Communists and Social Democrats; liberal, Catholic, and conservative parties; and the Nazis--Julia Sneeringer shows how various groups struggled to reconcile traditional assumptions about women's interests with the changing face of the family and female economic activity. Through propaganda, political parties addressed themes such as motherhood, fashion, religion, and abortion. But as Sneeringer demonstrates, their efforts to win women's votes by emphasizing "women's issues" had only limited success. The debates about women in propaganda were symptomatic of larger anxieties that gripped Germany during this era of unrest, Sneeringer says. Though Weimar political culture was ahead of its time in forcing even the enemies of women's rights to concede a public role for women, this horizon of possibility narrowed sharply in the face of political instability, economic crises, and the growing specter of fascism. 000277580 650_0 $$aWomen$$zGermany$$xHistory. 000277580 650_0 $$aWomen$$xSuffrage$$zGermany. 000277580 650_0 $$aWomen's rights$$zGermany. 000277580 651_0 $$aGermany$$xPolitics and government$$y1918-1933. 000277580 85200 $$bgen$$hHQ1623$$i.S595$$i2002 000277580 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/description/unc041/2001053243.html 000277580 85642 $$3Book review (H-Net)$$uhttp://www.h-net.org/review/hrev-a0c6u5-aa 000277580 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:277580$$pGLOBAL_SET 000277580 980__ $$aBIB 000277580 980__ $$aBOOK 000277580 994__ $$aE0$$bISE
