While women played a significant role in the international struggle against fascism during the interwar period, their contributions have often been overshadowed by the focus on men and political figures in the historiography. This book seeks to rectify that oversight by examining the key figures, strategies, connections, and campaigns of the CMF. By positioning the CMF as an important contributor to international political advocacy in the interwar period, it offers a valuable contribution to the histories of both women's activism and anti-fascist activism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMoreover, the CMF's association with international communism and the burgeoning Popular Front movement placed it at the forefront of global debates about the threat posed by fascism and imperialism. This book explores how professional women activists and working-class women who populated the organization developed a committee that advocated for women on a global scale. It charts how the CMF utilized a variety of physical spaces and literary formats to coordinate anti-fascist actions through its expansive and ambitious campaigns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author also demonstrates the close connections between the Communist International and the CMF as a communist front organization, providing context for the group's decision-making and prioritization of certain campaigns over others. This book will be of interest to scholars of anti-fascism, feminism, women's history, communism, activism, internationalism, anti-imperialism, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 560g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367720483\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JasmineCalver","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103851475194,"sku":"9780367720483","price":136.64,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_92a87ef6-7737-470f-b538-b8a5ed5c0ff9.jpg?v=1668192738","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/antifascism-gender-and-international-communism-the-comite-mondial-des-femmes-contre-la-guerre-et-le-fascisme-1934-1941-9780367720483","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
