ABSTRACT
In this paper, an effort will be made to redress that imbalance. The addition of women's rights and, indeed, of women's participation in the work of the peace society was the result of a campaign led by a Genevan woman, Marie Pouchoulin-Goegg. Goegg’s group worked separately from the Ligue to educate women on war and peace questions through public meetings and lectures. The impact of the Franco-Prussian War and the evolution of parliamentary institutions in Europe also minimized the differences between liberal internationalism and republican or radical internationalism. Women participated in the peace movement from the 1890s to 1914 in all possible ways. In France women’s peace societies began to multiply in the 1890s. No major women’s petition and demonstration campaign preceded the second Hague Peace Conference in 1907, but in 1910 the German-American feminist and pacifist, Anna Eckstein organized another mass crusade for signatures.
