Women's suffrage in Switzerland : ウィキペディア英語版 | Women's suffrage in Switzerland
Women in Switzerland gained the right to vote in federal elections after a referendum in 1971.〔 In 1991 following a decision by the Federal Supreme Court of Switzerland, Appenzell Innerrhoden became the last Swiss canton to grant women the vote on local issues.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=United Nations press release of a meeting of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), issued on 14 January 2003 )〕 A previous referendum on women's suffrage was held on 1 February 1959 and was rejected by the majority (67%) of Switzerland's men. Despite this, in some French-speaking cantons women obtained the right to vote in local referendums.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Long Way to Women's Right to Vote in Switzerland: a Chronology )〕 The first Swiss woman to hold political office, Trudy Späth-Schweizer, was elected to the municipal government of Riehen in 1958. ==The Swiss Political System and Universal Suffrage==
The introduction of federal and cantonal universal suffrage necessitated the vote of the majority of the electors, men in this case, for a referendum. Moreover, a new federal constitutional reform must likewise be approved by the majority of the cantons. Another reason is the tight connection, since the constitution of 1848, between the right to vote and military service in the Swiss army, traditionally reserved for men.
