2 Views /Female Participation in Late 19th and Early 20th Century Politics
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page analysis in which the writer argues that Theda Skocpol in her book "Protecting Soldiers and Mothers," and also Kristi Andersen in her book "After Suffrage" address similar territory in that both of these political scientists look at how female participation in the American political process in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries has largely been under-appreciated or ignored completely. Both of these authors demonstrate that this participation must be viewed within the context of political framework of their time in order to be understood properly. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

A Comparison of the Ideas of Marriage in Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper comparing marriage in Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” and Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women”. In a comparison of Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” (1879) and Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women” (1792), Ibsen tells the story of an unequal relationship in the marriage of Nora and Torvald; an inequality which Wollstonecraft states shouldn’t exist in a marriage. For Wollstonecraft, a marriage is a social contract in which both partners are equal in their education and commitment to the education of the children and the betterment of the social and public life of the state. Without this equal commitment and mutual respect, the education of the children, a priority for the wife, will suffer and it will also lead to an eventual demise in the strength of the ties which exist between the social and public life of the state. Nora and Torvald’s marriage does eventually break down because of the inequality which does exist in the relationship with Nora having little or no control over her own life or the lives of her children’s. Another relationship within “A Doll’s House” which is more consistent with the ideas of Wollstonecraft does exist between Mrs. Linde and Krogstad. Their relationship is built on mutual respect, affection and the equality they offer each other in regards to their hard work and business matters. From Wollstonecraft’s perspective, their relationship would be one that is more consistent with that described in her “Vindication”. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

A Look at the Dual-Income Family
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. An interesting and enlightening paper that examines the history and research of the dual-income family and how it relates to the marriage partners, the workplace and the family. With the advent of dual-income marriages taking precedence over those with only one breadwinner, one would think the primary focus here is the financial one. Contrary to popular opinion, the primary concern in the dual-income family is the division of chores and the inner conflict as to who has the most important income in the house.
