activity," historian Paula Baker has developed a political history that includes women. She concludes that among ordinary
citizens, political activism by women in the nineteenth century prefigured trends in twentiethcentury politics. Defining
"politics" as "any action taken to affect the course of behavior of government or of the community," Baker concludes that,
while voting and holding office were restricted to men, women in the nineteenth century organized themselves into
societies committed to social issues such as temperance and poverty. In other words, Baker contends, women activists were
early practitioners of nonpartisan, issueoriented politics and thus were more interested in enlisting lawmakers, regardless of
their party affiliation, on behalf of certain issues than in ensuring that one party or another won an election. In the
twentieth century, more men drew closer to women's ideas about politics and took up modes of issueoriented politics that

The new school of political history that emerged in the 1960's and 1970's sought to go beyond the traditional focus of
political historians on leaders and government institutions by examining directly the political practices of ordinary citizens.
Like the old approach, however, this new approach excluded women. The very techniques these historians used to uncover

were useless in analyzing the political activities of women, who were denied the vote until 1920. By redefining "political
activity," historian Paula Baker has developed a political history that includes women. She concludes that among ordinary
citizens, political activism by women in the nineteenth century prefigured trends in twentiethcentury politics. Defining
"politics" as "any action taken to affect the course of behavior of government or of the community," Baker concludes that,
while voting and holding office were restricted to men, women in the nineteenth century organized themselves into
societies committed to social issues such as temperance and poverty. In other words, Baker contends, women activists were
early practitioners of nonpartisan, issueoriented politics and thus were more interested in enlisting lawmakers, regardless of
their party affiliation, on behalf of certain issues than in ensuring that one party or another won an election. In the
twentieth century, more men drew closer to women's ideas about politics and took up modes of issueoriented politics that
Baker sees women as having pioneered. It can be inferred that the author of the passage quotes Baker directly in the
second paragraph primarily in order to:
