Abstract:
This thesis is a comparative analysis of the activities, aims and
accomplishments of the German Federation of University Women ("Deutscher
Akademikerinnenbund", DAB) and the Irish Women Graduates' Associations (IWGAs)
during the 1950s and the 1960s. The main research objective has been to establish
whether these two women graduates' organizations contributed to continuing an
active women's movement at a time when the political, social and cultural
environment of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Republic of Ireland was
largely impervious to women's demands for de jure and de facto equality.
