- 요약This dissertation examines feminist organizing in early republican Havana. Feminist activism flourished during the 1920s as women, particularly middle-class white women in Cuba's capital, gained new freedoms in education, the workplace, and the domestic sphere. These developments contributed to the emergence of a robust feminist movement that sought to expand women's rights and secure full civic, social, and legal equality with men. Feminists in Havana organized national congresses, founded clubs and associations, and promoted their cause through speeches and publications. While these efforts brought greater visibility to feminist demands, the movement's priorities often reflected the social position of the elite white women who occupied leadership roles.As the 1920s progressed, deep ideological divisions emerged among feminist leaders. Moderate and conservative feminists often framed gender inequality as a moral issue, emphasizing the belief that women's enfranchisement would help guide Cuban society and its citizens toward virtue. In contrast, radical leftist feminists demanded a revolutionary transformation that addressed the structural roots of sexism and an overhaul of the norms of white middle-class Cuban society. These fundamentally different visions for Cuba's future fractured the movement's initial sense of unity and led to increasing fragmentation along political lines.The rise of the dictatorship of Gerardo Machado (1925-1933) briefly united feminists once again. Confronted by state violence and authoritarianism, feminists joined students and workers in public protest and became some of the most visible members of the opposition. Feminists were instrumental in mobilizing resistance, but this period of unity proved fleeting. Once Machado fell, longstanding divisions resurfaced, and the movement struggled to maintain momentum.After the fall of Machado and the subsequent granting of suffrage the year after in 1934, feminism on the island began to wane. Many feminists turned their attention to formal politics, running for office or supporting other female candidates rather than sustaining independent feminist organizations. Radical women shifted to join the Communist Party and anti-fascist movements. While the feminist movement helped reshape public life in Cuba, it was ultimately hindered by its internal contradictions - particularly its failure to bridge divisions of class, race, and political ideology.
