Thesis (Ph.D.)--Indiana University, 2004.

This dissertation examines a selection of postwar women's writing to investigate how women reacted to persisting political and social inequalities after they acquired full active citizenship in 1944. In particular, this study is concerned with one of the most striking examples of continued repressive state laws, that is, abortion laws which denied women the right to control their own bodies, a right included in the liberal-republican ideal of citizenship.

520 $a This dissertation examines a selection of postwar women's writing to investigate how women reacted to persisting political and social inequalities after they acquired full active citizenship in 1944. In particular, this study is concerned with one of the most striking examples of continued repressive state laws, that is, abortion laws which denied women the right to control their own bodies, a right included in the liberal-republican ideal of citizenship.
520 $a To this end, the study analyses three types of political writing---high feminist literature, mass cultural texts, and feminist reviews---to show how women's writing creates a politically potent community for women, which I have called "imagined sisterhood." My main point throughout the study is that this alternative social space represents and promotes women's collective political agency, despite women's continued political marginalization in postwar French public culture.
520 $a Through analysis of the symbolic representations of women and their bodies in these texts, I show how personal experiences of the body related to sexuality and reproduction are central to postwar women's activism. In fact, women's corporeality represents something very unique and historically specific to postwar gender politics. I argue, thus, that women's political activism, or the politics of sisterhood, constitute an historically unique expression of French feminism, as women demanded, for the first time, equal rights based on their corporeal difference from men.
520 $a Exemplified is this effort in the struggle for reproductive freedom, in which women collectively challenged the French state to abandon its laws criminalizing abortion and to recognize women's rights. It is in this way that an analysis of the politics of sisterhood contributes to our understanding of women's political activism, an issue so far undertheorized in the field of democratic theory.
