- Synopsis
- The intellectual spark that set off the flames of revolution in France and the United States was the same one that prompted a change in the way women viewed themselves and their role in society. Initially, the struggle for equal rights was meant to apply only to men but the strength of an ideal took hold and a movement was born. "Ideas Triumphant" is the history of the reproductive rights movement from its early roots in post-revolutionary France to the enormous strides made by reproductive rights activists in the twentieth century. As women began to take control of their reproductive choices they were able to make greater contributions to the world of finance, academics, and sciences. No longer beaten down and burdened with countless pregnancies and the accompanying high risk of death during childbirth, these women were able to contribute more to society and slowly dispel the myth of female inferiority. "Ideas Triumphant" follows a path of an enlightened thought from its revolutionary beginning to its current place in its continuing evolution. It looks at the important people and the events that lead to the success of an idea and the transformation of a culture.
