suffrage
意味: The right to vote in political elections; the exercise of this right. Most commonly encountered in the phrase 'universal suffrage' or in reference to the women's suffrage movement.
The struggle for suffrage — particularly women's suffrage — is one of the most important social movements in British history. The suffragettes (led by Emmeline Pankhurst) and suffragists (led by Millicent Fawcett) campaigned for decades before women over 30 gained the vote in 1918, with full equal suffrage achieved in 1928. 'Universal suffrage' means the right of all adult citizens to vote. The distinction between suffragettes (militant) and suffragists (peaceful) is important in British historiography.
