The first book on women's political history in Belize, "From Colony to Nation" demonstrates that women were creators of and activists within the two principal political currents of twentieth-century Belize: colonial-middle class reform and popular labour-nationalism. As such, their alliances and struggles with colonial administrators, male reformers, and nationalists and with one another were central to the emergence of this improbable nation-state. "From Colony to Nation" draws on extensive research and previously un-mined sources such as almost one hundred interviews, colonial government records, the files of Belize's first feminist organization, and court records. Anne S. Macpherson examines the tensions of the 1910s that led to the 1919 anti-colonial riot; the reform project of the 1920s, in which Garveyite women were key state allies; the militant anti-colonial labour movement of the 1930s; the more ambitious reform project of the 1940s; the successful but non-revolutionary nationalist movement of the 1950s; and, the gender dynamics of party politics and both Black Power and feminist challenges to the party system in the 1960s and 1970s. "From Colony to Nation" connects to historiographies of racialized and gendered reform in colonial and other multiracial societies and of tensions between female activism and masculine authority within nationalist movements and postcolonial societies.
