Analysis of the inversion of the anarchist feminine rhetoric in the 1920s. After a great hope in women’s immediate emancipation the movement turned toward criticizing women for their passivity and the declining participation of males in anarchist groups. Focusing on themes such as women, victimizaton and revolution, the author examines the influence of anarchist feminist periodicals in reshaping the Left’s discourse. However, international and domestic factors combined in the postwar period to fragment their organization and dampen their enthusiasm.
