Switzerland was one of the last Western democracies to grant women the right to vote at the federal level — and it didn't happen until 1971. This episode explores the long, often overlooked struggle of Swiss women for political equality, from the first cantonal votes in the 1950s to the nail-biting national referendum of February 7, 1971. We trace the roots of exclusion to the Landsgemeinde tradition, the role of the federal structure in delaying change, and the key figures like Emilie Gourd and Iris von Roten who pushed for reform. Along the way, we look at the curious case of Appenzell Innerrhoden, which held out until 1990, and the broader cultural resistance that made Swiss suffrage a uniquely protracted battle. A story of patience, persistence, and the quiet power of democracy. #History #FexingoHistory #Switzerland #WomensSuffrage #1971 #Landsgemeinde #EmilieGourd #IrisvonRoten #AppenzellInnerrhoden #Referendum #Feminism #Democracy #SwissPolitics #Cantons #VotingRights #1970s #GenderEquality #Europe Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
