Feminism in Sweden dates back to the 17th century and has been discussed in intellectual circles throughout the 18th century. Since the publication ''Samtal emellan Argi Skugga och en obekant Fruentimbers Skugga'' by Margareta Momma in 1738, followed by Hedvig Charlotta Nordenflycht's famous poem ''Fruntimrens försvar'' (To the Defense of Women, 1761) debate on gender roles and gender equality has become a mainstream topic. With a relatively high level of education, in 1862, unmarried Swedish women were the first worldwide to be granted some limited right to vote in municipal elections. Universal women suffrage only followed in 1921, but since then, Sweden has remained a forerunner of gender equality driven by a both intellectual and practical feminist movement. Today, with its increasing multiculturalism, Swedish society has embraced third-wave feminism. Sweden's Feminist Initiative became the first feminist political party to win a parliamentary mandate in the 2014 European elections, rediscussing feminism from a decisively antiracist perspective that includes the perspectives of people of color. ==History== During the 17th-century, questions around gender roles, gender equality and women's rights were raised by individuals such as Sophia Elisabet Brenner and Beata Rosenhane, but these were rare exceptions. During the 18th-century, gender roles, gender equality and reform in women's social and legal status were discussed in public debate and literature. Many anonymous female journalists and writers participated under pseudonyms in temporary periodicals, often in the form of a fictions correspondence, questioning the status of women, only a minority of whom, however, has been identified.〔Jakob Christensson (in Swedish): Signums svenska kulturhistoria. Gustavianska tiden (English: Swedish culture history by signum. The Gustavian age) (2007)〕 Among them were Margareta Momma, Catharina Ahlgren and Anna Maria Rückerschöld. In 1761, Hedvig Charlotta Nordenflycht wrote her famous poem ''Fruntimrens försvar'' (To the Defense of Women). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Feminism in Sweden」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
