Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston College, 2002.

Using the histories of three American women as case studies, this dissertation argues that personal motivations and ideologies shaped the Vietnam-era peace movement, enabling it take varying forms and hold different levels of significance in the lives of thousands of individuals. Individually these women used their unique talents and resources to mobilize, educate, and politicize their communities. Collectively they became integral components of a movement that forced the public to rethink its previously blind faith in government, recognize the suffering of the American and Vietnamese victims of the war, and question the moral and political compass of the United States—its people and government—during the Cold War.

520 $a Using the histories of three American women as case studies, this dissertation argues that personal motivations and ideologies shaped the Vietnam-era peace movement, enabling it take varying forms and hold different levels of significance in the lives of thousands of individuals. Individually these women used their unique talents and resources to mobilize, educate, and politicize their communities. Collectively they became integral components of a movement that forced the public to rethink its previously blind faith in government, recognize the suffering of the American and Vietnamese victims of the war, and question the moral and political compass of the United States—its people and government—during the Cold War. My subjects are:
520 $a Carol McEldowney, a community organizer and member of Students for a Democratic Society who was invited to travel to Vietnam in 1967 for two weeks of meetings with North Vietnamese officials. In her later writings McEldowney would credit these experiences in Southeast Asia as being the fuel for her tireless devotion to both the anti-war and women's movements of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
520 $a Rohna Shoul, who joined with fellow mothers to form “Voice of Women—New England” in 1961 in response to the proliferation of nuclear weapons. While their early efforts—demonstrations, letter-writing and fund-raising campaigns—focused on the threat their children faced growing up in a world of global unrest, by 1965 the women had turned their attention to the escalation of American military intervention in the war in Vietnam. For Shoul, the mother of three draft-age sons, it was this issue that most intensely stirred her political consciousness.
520 $a Ann Froines, a coordinator of the Indochina Peace Campaign. Froines's husband had been tried for conspiracy as one of the Chicago 8 following the Democratic National Convention in 1968. As a result of connections made during the trial, Froines was invited to travel with Black Panther Eldridge Cleaver to North Korea, North Vietnam, and China in the summer of 1971. She returned to the United States determined to educate Americans on the problems of United States policy abroad.
