Summary "Le vote des femmes" by Hubertine Auclert is a feminist political treatise written in the early 20th century. The work advocates for women's suffrage, examining the historical context of women's political rights in France and arguing for the inclusion of women in the democratic process. Through a series of emphatic arguments, Auclert aims to illuminate the detrimental effects of excluding women from voting and the benefits that their participation would bring to both society and the state. The opening of the text sets the stage for Auclert's impassioned plea, highlighting the long struggle for women's rights in France. She critiques the concept of "universal suffrage" as a façade that fails to encompass women, presenting it as a diluted version of true democracy. Auclert emphasizes that the exclusion of women from political engagement undermines the potential for societal progress and equity. By recounting historical examples and societal observations, she articulates her vision of a more balanced governance that includes both men and women as equal participants in shaping the nation's future.
