- W1987551642 abstract "This is a book about struggles over the status of women and gender in (civil) law in the Czech lands from the establishment of democracy after World War I through authoritarianism and fascism to the advent of the “communist” regime. Melissa Feinberg's narrative is built around three major arguments. The first argument is about the limits of dominant Czech understandings of gender equality. For most Czechs, the widely held ideal of gender equality fell short of including the private sphere and the family. Feinberg identifies only one camp within the Czech women's movement—labeled as the “Czech feminists” (p. 10)—and its occasional supporters, who clung to the language of equal rights for the two sexes as a building block of democracy. As a result, there was wide ranging support only for public political rights, such as equal suffrage for women introduced at the birth of the republic. In virtually all other spheres of civil law, such as marriage law, married women's citizenship, and the celibét for women working in the civil service—the main areas covered in the book—at any given point in time reform endeavors run into resistance from various corners. No substantial progress toward creating the legal basis for true gender equality was achieved in any of these spheres, and the period after the world economic crisis brought the (re)introduction of the celibét. Only in the field of abortion, which was prohibited by criminal law, did the struggle over reform emerge from, and founder in, a somewhat different discursive and political constellation." @default.
