Review: American Women since 1945,
By Filipic Juergen (Ludmannsdorf Austria) - See all my reviews
This review is from: American Women Since 1945 (Paperback)
Rochelle Gatlin's book American Women since 1945 gives a very good overview about the situation of women in America after the Second World War. It accurately describes how they were pushed into their domestic role in the 1950s and documents their way through decades of discrimination and fighting for their rights, also taking into consideration social class and racial differences. I can recommend this book to everyone - to women and of course to men as well - who no longer want to accept the exclusion of women in history, politics and society. I believe this book is an important step away from history purely defined from a male perspective looking exclusively at men and their world. The book represents a move towards the recognition that also the history of women is important and must definitely not be ignored but considered an essential field in historical and social studies. It is a good starting point for looking at history from the other side- from the female perspective - and opening one's eyes for the other side - the lives and problems of women in the 20th century.
