Remembering Womens Activism examines the intersections between gender politics and acts of remembrance by tracing the cultural memories of women who are known for their actions.Memories are constantly being reinterpreted and are profoundly shaped by gender. This book explores the gendered dimensions of history and memory through nation-based and transnational case studies from the Asia-Pacific region and Anglophone world. Chapters consider how different forms of womens activism have been remembered: the efforts of suffragists in Britain, the USA and Australia to document their own histories and preserve their memory; Constance Markievicz and Qiu Jin, two early twentieth-century political activists in Ireland and China respectively; the struggles of women workers; and the movement for redress of those who have suffered militarized sexual abuse. The book concludes by reflecting on the mobilization of memories of activism in the present.Transnational in scope and with reference to both state-centred and organic acts of remembering, including memorial practices, physical sites of memory, popular culture and social media, Remembering Womens Activism is an ideal volume for all students of gender and history, the history of feminism, and the relationship between memory and history.

Remembering Womens Activism examines the intersections between gender politics and acts of remembrance by tracing the cultural memories of women who are known for their actions.
Memories are constantly being reinterpreted and are profoundly shaped by gender. This book explores the gendered dimensions of history and memory through nation-based and transnational case studies from the Asia-Pacific region and the Anglophone world.

The book concludes by reflecting on the mobilization of memories of activism in the present.
Transnational in scope and with reference to both state-centred and organic acts of remembering, including memorial practices, physical sites of memory, popular culture, and social media, Remembering Womens Activism is an ideal volume for all students of gender and history, the history of feminism, and the relationship between memory and history.

REMEMBERING THE MODERN WORLD
Series Editors: David Lowe and Tony Joel
The Remembering the Modern World series throws new light on the major themes in the field of history and memory in a global context. The series investigates relationships between state-centred practices and other forms of collective and individual memory; looks at the phenomenon of anniversaries and national days in the context of global and national identities; shows how some cities and sites play active roles in generating acts of remembrance and asks why some phenomena and events are remembered more widely and easily than others.

CONTENTS
Organized thematically, this ambitious new series takes a broad view of what constitutes remembering great historical events and phenomena in the late modern period (i.e. since 1789). Volumes in the series draw on such things as: ceremonies associated with anniversaries and national days; episodes of memorialization and commemoration including museum exhibitions; filmic representations and popular culture; public discourse and debate as shaped and reflected by speeches of political and civic leaders; and school curricula, et cetera. Remembering the Modern World makes a fresh contribution to memory studies by placing much emphasis on narrative (with substantive introductory chapters addressing the main theoretical and methodological issues), and by drawing on the strengths of complementary disciplines, including History, Cultural Heritage, Anthropology, Journalism Studies, Sociology, International Relations, and Law. To complement the text, wherever appropriate, volumes are encouraged to make widespread use of maps, timelines, illustrations, and especially photographs taken by contributing authors during field research.
The series offers a comparative glance across the contemporary world in a manner that explores both the reach of globalization and the insistence of localizing forces. As for themes projected for examination throughout the series, these include inter alia war and peace, genocide, political and social emancipation, imperialism, decolonization, terrorism, sporting triumphs, tragedies, and rivalries, heroes and villains, political revolutions and constitutional crises, and feminism.
Each book in the series will start with an overview of the most significant theoretical and methodological approaches historians and other scholars have deployed in relation to the kind of material being explored within the volume. The aim is to sketch the theoretical and methodological landscape, enabling interested readers to follow key references to what has become a well-theorized field. The substantive chapters/sections thereafter might be theoretically suggestive, but primarily focus on presenting narratives constructed around whatever case studies are being remembered.
