This book tells the story of how women mobilized in fifteen states to change jury laws so that women could gain this additional right of citizenship. Some campaigns quickly succeeded; others took substantially longer. The book reveals that when women strategically adapted their tactics to the broader political environment, they were able to speed up the pace of jury reform, while less strategic movements took longer. A comparison of the more strategic women's jury movements with those that were less strategic shows that the former built coalitions with other women's groups, took advantage of political opportunities, had past experience in seeking legal reforms and confronted tensions and even conflict within their ranks in ways that bolstered their action"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000439486 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000439486 650_0 $$aWomen jurors$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000439486 650_0 $$aJury$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000439486 650_0 $$aWomen$$xLegal status, laws, etc.$$zUnited States. 000439486 650_0 $$aLaw$$xPolitical aspects. 000439486 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMcCammon, Holly J., 1959-$$tU.S. women's jury movements and strategic adaptation.$$dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2012$$z9781107009929$$w(DLC) 2012001480$$w(OCoLC)773278537 000439486 8520_ $$bacq 000439486 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000439486 85640 $$3EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=443690$$zOnline Access 000439486 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:439486$$pGLOBAL_SET 000439486 980__ $$aEBOOK 000439486 980__ $$aBIB 000439486 982__ $$aEbook 000439486 983__ $$aOnline 000439486 994__ $$a92$$bISE
