| 摘 要： | From the end of the 19th century to early 20th centuries, the feminist movement in the United States was vigorous and active. American women made advances in social life and finally gained the suffrage through unremitting struggle. In the two decades following the Second World War, they continued their participation in the work force which reflected great social changes in economy, demography, and medical field. The postwar economic development called for women to continue in the struggle for the equal working opportunity and equal pay, which led the revival of the second American feminist movement. The origins of the movement can be traced in several aspects: social factors, the argument in the ideological field, and the reform climate in the postwar years.
