"The Making of the Women's Political Press: Gender and Advocacy Journalism in Britain, 1856--1930" examines the political, intellectual, and cultural significance of the over one hundred and fifty periodicals published "by and for women" in Britain from 1856 to 1930. Backed by a core of reform-minded intellectuals, the institution of the women's political press created a female literary space where readers and writers developed and disseminated ideas to an informed constituency in a periodic format. Through the medium of the periodical press women created social networks and a means of self-conscious political identification based on sex. Those involved in these projects attempted to control all functions related to the production and consumption of what they referred to as "their press." This included printing, writing, editing and, in some cases, distributing the journals and newspapers that they produced. Out of this activity emerged a model of political action based on an imagined community of women readers and writers who shared a common interest in their own social, economic and ultimately, political advancement. In so doing, the women's political press joined a long tradition of advocacy journalism that had started with British radical movements of the late advocacy journalism that had started with British radical movements of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Working class and chartist newspapers advocated new political freedoms while at the same time shaping an identity for their disenfranchised readers based on their mutual economic and political interests. Through their own brand of print journalism women created such a community based not on more familiar and traditional divisions of class, but on gender. In studying the institutional infrastructure the women's publishing and printing industry "The Making of the Women's Political Press" thus explores the larger implications of the uses of the medium of the press in democratic societies as a legitimate voice for political cultures outside of the world of mainstream politics.
