Abstract

The literature on the role of women in the First World War, and the war's effect on gender roles, considers conservative and socialist feminism, the expansion of the franchise in 1918 and 1928, and state welfare policies. However, there has been less work on the women of the Left who participated in the war effort, and who used nationalism to push for socialist and feminist objectives. These women have been understudied for various reasons: as women, they were often disregarded by military and political historians, and as enablers a conflict they have usually been overlooked by historians of gender and of the Left. This article is concerned with these women, and examines the extent, nature and significance of their participation within the war effort and their use of nationalism to advance socialist and feminist objectives. It analyses how their actions during the conflict affected the gender, class and political frameworks of the time, both in the lead-up to the Representation of the People Act 1918, and in the first years of female enfranchisement. Based on extensive use of the files of the War, Emergency: Workers' National Committee and on the publications of the labour and co-operative movements, it argues that a substantial section of the female labour movement articulated a sense of British nationalism in the years during and after the First World War, utilized this to advance their political, economic, and feminist objectives, and in doing so challenged political orthodoxy and prevailing gender roles.

左翼妇女、爱国主义和国家认同,1914-28 年》(Women of the Left, Patriotism, and National Identity, 1914-28.
关于妇女在第一次世界大战中的作用以及战争对性别角色的影响的文献,考虑了保守主义和社会主义女权主义、1918 年和 1928 年选举权的扩大以及国家福利政策。然而,对参与战争、利用民族主义推动社会主义和女权主义目标的左翼妇女的研究较少。出于各种原因,这些妇女一直未得到充分研究:作为女性,她们往往被军事和政治历史学家所忽视;作为冲突的推动者,她们通常被性别和左翼历史学家所忽略。本文关注这些妇女,研究她们参与战争的程度、性质和意义,以及她们利用民族主义推进社会主义和女权主义目标的情况。文章分析了她们在冲突期间的行动如何影响了当时的性别、阶级和政治框架,无论是在 1918 年《人民代表法案》的准备阶段,还是在女性获得选举权的最初几年。该书基于对战争、紧急状态、工人全国委员会档案的广泛使用,以及对 1918 年《人民代表法案》出台前和女性获得选举权最初几年的研究:该书广泛使用了 "战争、紧急状况:工人全国委员会 "的档案以及劳工和合作社运动的出版物,论证了在第一次世界大战期间和之后的岁月里,女性劳工运动中的很大一部分人表达了一种英国民族主义的意识,并利用这种意识来推进她们的政治、经济和女权主义目标,并在此过程中对政治正统观念和普遍的性别角色提出了挑战。
