The women of the Pd’a fought against every form of "gender segregation" in politics and were thus mainly averse to the concept of purely female associations. Aware, however, of the difficulties women were facing in politics and society, the leading women of the Pd’a nonetheless joined the Udi. The author delineates their challenging attempt to implement their ideas of equality, democracy and autonomy within the Udi} url={http://www.francoangeli.it/Riviste/Scheda_rivista.aspx?idArticolo=54876}, author={Merz Noemi Crain} pages={49-64}, language={IT}}
