"Enfranchisement of Women: An Essay by Mrs. John Stuart Mill" is a seminal socio-political essay reprinted from the Westminster and Foreign Quarterly Review, originally published in the mid-19th century, specifically in 1851. This book serves as a powerful advocate for women's rights, addressing the crucial topic of political, civil, and social equality for women. It reflects the burgeoning feminist movements of its time, highlighting the demand for women's suffrage and the importance of equal rights within various sectors of society. In this essay, Mill articulates the injustices faced by women and argues that their exclusion from political and civil rights is both morally indefensible and detrimental to society as a whole. He emphasizes that all individuals who are subject to laws should have a say in their enactment, contesting the notion that only men should wield power in government. Drawing parallels with the ongoing abolitionist movements, Mill asserts that the struggle for women's rights is fundamentally tied to the broader principles of democracy and human rights. He critiques societal norms, advocating for women's education and their right to participate fully in all professions and civic duties, ultimately asserting that true equality can only be achieved through the enfranchisement of women.
