Women and Social Movements in
the United States
Women and
Social Movements in the United States brings together primary
documents, books, images, scholarly essays, book reviews, Web site
reviews, and teaching tools, all documenting the multiplicity of women’s
activism in public life. It’s one of the most heavily visited resources
for women’s studies on the Web, and it appeals to students and scholars
at all levels. The database is edited by the project’s creators, Kathryn
Kish Sklar and Thomas Dublin of the State University of New York at
Binghamton, together with an editorial board of leading scholars from
around the U.S.
Basic Edition is ideal for teaching U.S. history. It is
organized around document projects, each posing a new interpretative
question and then providing 20 to 50 primary documents that address the
question, together with an interpretive introduction and headnotes,
bibliography, and related links. The presentations reveal the process of
historical change, and they help students to develop skills needed to
analyze the primary documents.
The new Scholar’s Edition features enhanced content and search
tools that make it ideal for research and scholarship. It includes the
Basic Edition plus 75,000 additional pages of previously inaccessible
data and statistics from the publications of local and state commissions
on women since 1963. These publications embrace an astonishing range of
issues, employing pamphlets, posters, personal narratives, advice
literature, training guides, interviews, and other ephemera that provide
snapshots of women’s struggle for equality over time and across regions.
