FASCINATING FIGURES: The book offers a compelling and lively look at the varied lives of four genuinely distinctive women, all of them historically significant.CUTTING-EDGE: Schechter is part of a relatively new movement in US history that uses transnational history to understand individual experience both within and outside the context of the nation.NUANCED APPROACH: The book features truly remarkable life studies, but it avoids the celebratory tone that is easy to slip into discussing women’s movements and maneuvering around national borders.

Beschreibung

This study explores two categoriesempire and citizenshipthat historians usually study separately. It does so with a unifying focus on racialization in the lives of outstanding women whose careers crossed national borders between 1880 and 1965. It puts an individual, intellectual, and female face on transnational phenomena.
