Description: "Among the most dramatic changes in American life in recent decades has been the changing role of women in society. With this comprehensive study of gender equality debates in the party system from 1968 to 2000, Democrats, Republicans, and the Politics of Women's Place reveals the impact that these changes have had on the political parties. It brings new theory, data, and analyses to bear on the questions of party politics, electoral realignment, and the women's movement."--BOOK JACKET.
