About the book

"This is the first exploration of the campaigns of women in China to gain equal rights to political participation. The dynamic and successful struggle for suffrage rights waged by Chinese women activists through the first half of the twentieth century challenged fundamental and centuries-old principles of political power. By demanding a public political voice for women, the activists promoted new conceptions of democratic representation for the entire political structure, not simply for women. Their movement created the space in which gendered codes ofvirtue would be radically transformed for both men and women."--BOOK JACKET.
