Description
This important reference work fills a significant gap in the historiography of British fascism, which has generally overlooked the contribution of the women's movement. Looking at female fascist activism and the influence of feminist ideology on the fascist agenda, Julie V. Gottlieb shows the significant impact of feminist thought in this area. The author makes use of newly released government documents, a huge range of contemporary pamphlets, newspapers and speeches, and original interviews with those personally involved in the fascist movement.
