Transforming utopia

the "league for the protection of mothers and sexual reform" in the First World War

Peter Davies

pp. 211-226

We had hoped to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the League in public, first and foremost by organising an international congress designed to demonstrate how the ideas that we are fighting for have spread to the rest of the civilized world. Until the outbreak of war, we could not have imagined that a world war would put a stop to our work … We have had to get used to coping even with this extraordinary situation, and we have adapted our work to suit the new circumstances.1 (Geschäftsbericht 1915: 1)
