A Revolution from the Margins
Visualizing femicide in the print media
The 1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action developed at the Fourth United Nations World Conference on Women acknowledged the media as a vital arena for the advancement of women’s equality. Now, thirty years after the Beijing Declaration, it is clear that structural inequalities within journalism and the media continue to shape representations of women and thus the advancement of gender equality. From this starting point, this article ex…
Archiving, exhibiting, and curating the history of feminisms in the global twentieth century
Following the ‘archival turn’ of the 1990s and early 2000s, scholars have understood archives as entwined in epistemic hierarchies of power. The study of gender and sexuality, alongside postcolonial approaches were central to this critical shift, advancing methods that both challenged the archive as a fixed entity of historical truth and broadened perceptions of where history is made. Queer and feminist historians have since drawn attention to th…
Feminist Transformations and Domestic Violence Activism in Divided Berlin, 1968-2002
Feminist Transformations is a history of women's activism against domestic violence in divided Berlin between 1968 and 2002. Situating domestic violence activism within a broader history of feminism in post-war Germany, this book shows how feminists in West and then East Berlin campaigned against domestic violence as a key issue of women's inequality. Feminists exposed the harmful gender norms that left women unprotected and vulnerable to abuse i…
Gender and Domestic Violence in Divided Germany
This article examines the varied responses to domestic violence across East andWest Germany in the final two decades of German division. Specifically, it explores two case studies that were central to addressing violence against women in the home: divorce cases and women’s shelters. Divorce hearings and women’s shelters were both hubs for the discussion of domestic abuse in the two Germanies and provide a glimpse not only into the lives of women …
Gendering Value Change
Feminist domestic violence activists in 1970s West Berlin sought to create a community of women helping women. This was key to feminist work in challenging patriarchal citizenship norms and male violence against women. Tracing the evolution of feminist domestic violence activism in West Berlin, this article argues that feminist ideals and critiques were deradicalized as they were taken up in political and public discourse. Rather than being a pol…

Sisters in Arms
In 1968, West Berlin activist Helke Sander raised the problem of sexism present within the New Left at the conference of the Socialist German Student League (SDS). When the meeting moved on without addressing Sander’s concerns, another woman, Sigrid Rüger, took action into her own hands, pelting the SDS leaders with tomatoes. This protest is now well-known as the act that inspired the formation of the New Women’s Movement in West Germany. But, as…

Women’s Bodies and Feminist Subjectivities in West Germany
Männer mit “Makel”
In the wake of World War II, German masculinity was felt to be in crisis. Not only were men returning from the front with a host of physical and mental injuries caused by the war, but the racialized, hyper-masculine, soldierly ideals espoused by the Nazis were delegitimized in the face of Allied victory. But, as the works of historians, such as Frank Biess, Till van Rahden, Elizabeth Heineman, and Heide Fehrenbach, have shown, the gender order wa…

Le « socialisme réel » à l'épreuve du genre
Depuis la chute du mur de Berlin, on a un peu oublié comment vivaient les femmes et les hommes dans les pays dirigés par des partis communistes et communément appelés du « socialisme réel ». Ce numéro, qui offre des contributions sur l’URSS, la Mongolie, divers États d’Europe de l’Est après 1945, la Chine et Cuba, tente de répondre à deux questions : comment et jusqu’où le socialisme, porteur d’une utopie égalitaire, a-t-il modifié les rapports d…
Josie McLellan, Love in the Time of Communism
Lauréat en 2011 du Prix Frankel d’histoire contemporaine de la Bibliothèque de Vienne, Love in the Time of Communism de Josie McLellan constitue l’un des travaux les plus innovateurs de l’historiographie actuelle sur l’Allemagne post-1945 comme sur la révolution sexuelle. En étudiant la transformation et les limites des mœurs sexuelles de l’Allemagne de l’Est dans les années 1970 et 1980, Josie McLellan traduit les problématiques actuelles des li…

Intercultural-bilingual Education for an Interethnic-plurilingual Society? The Case of Nicaragua's Caribbean Coast
This paper aims to contribute to an emerging literature which treats multilingualism as more than, and distinct from, 'bilingualism plus'. It considers some paradoxes and tensions which arise when current Latin American models of 'intercultural-bilingual' education are applied to plurilingual and interethnic regions, such as Nicaragua's Caribbean Coast region. Here, three indigenous and two Afro-Caribbean minorities interact in common or overlapp…

Can the Grass Roots Speak? The Literacy Campaign in English on Nicaragua's Atlantic Coast
This paper discusses the Literacy Campaign in English, one of three native language extensions of Nicaragua's famous National Literacy Crusade (Cruzada de Alfabetizacion) of 1979-81, as a particularly interesting case of how state policy and grassroots initiatives interact in indigenous/ethnic language maintenance in Latin America. Research on the conflictive relationship between the Sandinista government and the peoples of the Atlantic Coast (Co…
