Balen-Klaar, Frederike Swaantje van 1861 1952 Vrouwenkiesrecht Produced by Jeroen Hellingman and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net/ "Vrouwenkiesrecht" by Aletta H. Jacobs and Frederike Swaantje van Balen-Klaar is a historical treatise written in the late 19th century. The work explores the significance of women's suffrage, highlighting the importance of granting women the right to vote as a means of achieving social justice and equality. It addresses the systemic inequalities faced by women in society, particularly regarding their exclusion from the political sphere and the consequences of such exclusion. The opening of "Vrouwenkiesrecht" sets the stage for a thorough discussion about the need for women's suffrage, quoting notable statesmen who emphasize the impossibility of representing the interests of non-voters. Jacobs and van Balen-Klaar argue that the lack of suffrage diminishes women's rights and exacerbates their social and economic struggles. They provide historical context, drawing parallels with the expansion of men's voting rights that have historically undermined women's freedoms, and they encourage organized movements among women to advocate for their right to participate in legislative processes that affect their lives directly. The text establishes a philosophical and moral framework for the fight for women's voting rights by articulating the injustices faced by women and advocating for broader participation in governance.
