Der Aufbruch der Frauen in der SPD
Die Entwicklung der Frauenarbeitsgemeinschaft (ASF) während der 1970er und 1980er Jahre
Susanne Eyssen
In the 1970s and 1980s, the social democratic party in Germany, SPD, underwent a considerable change in women’s policy: it realigned its women’s and family policy, incorporated feminist goals into the basic programme and introduced a gender quota in order to increase the proportion of female party members in party functions and political offices. The study tells the story of this upheaval through interviews with contemporary witnesses and an extensive review of party documents.
