Women's International Activism during the Inter-War Period, 1919–1939

Songs of Sisterhood: Feminist Political Practice between Empire and Internationalism 1910–20

“…Ingrid Sharp and Matthew Stibbe have argued that women's international political activism should be a critical area of scholarship for women's history. 12 Glenda Sluga has shown how women participated in the international political sphere by charting their involvement in international organisations from the League of Nations to the United Nations. 13 These interventions rectify the continued absence of women in international political histories.…”
