The course intends to provide students with the knowledge concerning the history of women’s state in the XX century. It aims at offering a historical path by rebuilding ideological roots and government policies which signed the exclusion and inclusion of women with regard to the public sphere and productive environment, with a special attention devoted to the marginalization and segregation phenomena towards a group of female categories.
By the study of Women’s History the student will be able to achieve the following training objectives.
- Knowledge of the political-institutional scenarios characterized by the exclusion of women by the access to some fundamental rights: right to vote, to extra-domestic work, and working safeguard measures;
- Understanding the ethical-legal roots perpetuating gender inequality in the second half of the XX century;
- Ability to analyze the theoretical principles which have legitimized political choices by European governments in the first half of the XIX century, with a focus on the second post world war Italy.
The course of Women’s History requires knowledge of the contemporary history space time dimension and of the deep transformations on the political-institutional and socio-economic ground, occurred in the XX century. The multifaceted dimension of the course offers a great opportunity for interaction and integration with other subject matters contemplated in the comprehensive learning path (psychological, sociological, legal and pedagogical). As the gender mainstreaming and women’s empowerment represents a priority in the agenda of the international community, starting from the Agenda 2030, conceived as a new global constitution, the knowledge of the history of denied rights and battles carried out by women is essential in order to understand the current female condition at global level.
