| Abstract: | In this paper suffragism will be conceptualised within the boundaries of political and social history where women’s enfranchisement was coeval with the other key political questions of the 20th century. Although women’s enfranchisement, through the MacMichael Constitution of 1947, coincided with the erosion of British global hegemony and Empire, we may argue that women’s liberation then was still construed within frameworks and exchanges between the metropole and the colonies. |
| Description: | A public lecture on the occasion of the issue of a €10 silver coin to celebrate the seventieth year since Maltese women obtained the constitutional right to vote |
