This dissertation explores a new understanding of American political history that places gender at the center of its analytical framework and shows the significance of wartime debates over woman's citizenship to the development of the "surveillance state." To examine this complex problem, this study focuses on the relationship between anti-radicalism and socialist women's politics during World War I. As vocal opponents of the War, socialist women were targets for arrest and harassment under the Wartime Emergency Laws. But their opposition to the War in itself does not explain either the character of wartime anti-radicalism or why state authorities arrested particular women and left others untouched. Socialist women's wartime arrests and trials reveals the ambivalence held over how all women conducted themselves as "republican mothers." Serving not only to exclude certain types of women from politics, wartime anti-radicalism and the repression it bred also defined legitimate citizenship for all women. Most historical studies simply link wartime anti-radicalism to the decline of the white woman's movement. They view repression solely as an excluding force which limited women's political opportunities. But repression can also create and construct meaning. In contrast to previous studies, this dissertation analyzes how wartime anti-radicalism shaped the political process in which woman's citizenship was debated, practiced, and ultimately reconstructed during and immediately following World War I. It is from this process that the modern welfare/warfare state and its expectations of gender appropriate citizenship begins to emerge.Subjects--Topical Terms:
