Suffragettes in Great Britain and Ireland orchestrated a bombing and arson campaign between the years 1912 and 1914. The campaign was instigated by the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), and was a part of their wider campaign for women's suffrage. The campaign, led by key WSPU figures such as Emmeline Pankhurst, targeted infrastructure, government, churches and the general public, and saw the use of improvised explosive devices, arson, letter bombs, assassination attempts and other forms of direct action and violence. At least 5 people were killed in such attacks (including one suffragette), and at least 24 were injured (including two suffragettes). The campaign was halted at the outbreak of war in August 1914 without having brought about votes for women, as suffragettes pledged to

  • La campanya de bombardejos i incendis sufragistes va ser una campanya de protesta militant orquestrada per sufragistes a Gran Bretanya i Irlanda entre els anys 1912 i 1914. La campanya va ser impulsada per la , i va formar part de la seva campanya més àmplia de sufragi femení. La campanya, encapçalada per figures clau de la WSPU com Emmeline Pankhurst, va dirigir la infraestructura, el govern, les esglésies i el públic en general, i va veure l'ús d'aparells explosius improvisats, incendis incendiaris, bombes amb lletra, intents d'assassinat i altres formes d'acció directa i violència. Almenys cinc persones van morir en aquests atacs (inclosa una sufragista ) i almenys 24 van resultar ferides (incloses dues sufragistes). La campanya es va aturar en esclatar la guerra l' agost de 1914 sense haver provocat vots per a les dones, ja que les sufragistes es van comprometre a aturar la seva campanya per ajudar a l'esforç bèl·lic de la nació. La campanya ha vist la classificació com una campanya terrorista, amb les mateixes sufragistes i les autoritats que es refereixen als atacs incendiaris i bomba com a terrorisme. Els informes de premsa contemporanis també es referien als atacs com a incidents "terroristes" al Regne Unit i als Estats Units, i diversos historiadors també han classificat la campanya com a accions terroristes, com CJ Bearman, , Rachel Monaghan i historiadora feminista Cheryl Jorgensen-Earp. No obstant això, l'historiador ha contestat públicament el terme i ha argumentat que la campanya no implicava actes terroristes. (ca)

At least 5 people were killed in such attacks (including one suffragette), and at least 24 were injured (including two suffragettes). The campaign was halted at the outbreak of war in August 1914 without having brought about votes for women, as suffragettes pledged to pause their campaigning to aid the nation's war effort. The campaign has seen classification as a terrorist campaign, with both suffragettes themselves and the authorities referring to arson and bomb attacks as terrorism. Contemporary press reports also referred to attacks as "terrorist" incidents in both the United Kingdom and in the United States, and a number of historians have also classified the campaign as one involving terrorist acts, such as C. J. Bearman, Fern Riddell, Rachel Monaghan and feminist historian Cheryl Jorgensen-Earp. However, historian June Purvis has publicly contested the term and argued that the campaign did not involve terrorist acts. (en)
