Abstract :
The paper analyses the discourses and practices of women's organizations in interwar Romania in the context of the suffrage movement. The purpose of this endeavour is to offer an explanation of the particular features as well as the commonalities between the historical Romanian provinces, concerning the women's movement. Moreover, by investigating two interwar feminist publications the paper challenges the current view from the literature about the regional differences in the feminist discourse, suggesting that one has to look more closely into the moderate/radical model in order to obtain a more nuanced understanding of the movement's profile throughout Romania. Key-words: women's movements, feminism, political rights, political participation, universal suffrage.
