Argues that gender conscious women identify with other women, judge political actions on the basis of their consequences for women, and articulate their own policy positions as a manifestation of what they believe to be women's points of view.
This book examines the emergence of gender consciousness among women as a significant force in American politics. The author bases her argument on an in-depth empirical analysis of data derived from the U.S. biennial National Election studies of 1974 to 1984, the year of the emergence of the so-called gender gap. The author discusses the fact that while feminism is central to womens'' political orientation, the simple awareness of gender differences and group consciousness is a powerful force of change.
