That women were unfulfilled and unhappy in the limited role American society assigned to them.

Betty Friedan was an early leader of the feminist movement in the United States.  Her important book, <em>The Feminine Mystique, </em>published in 1963, argued that women in America were being misled into an unfulfilling and unhappy way of life.  They were made to believe that fulfillment and happiness as a woman came from being a wife, mother, homemaker.  But Friedan's studies of women showed that women were not happy just from that, that they were hungering for something else.  Their whole identity was coming from their roles or relationships to others in the home, not from who they actually were themselves.
Friedan's book challenged the existing patterns that existed in American society and pushed for women to have more of their own value for their own sake.  As she said (in chapter one):  "We can no longer ignore the voice within women that says, 'I want something more than my husband and my children and my home.'"

What are some ways that nationalism affected networks and production and distribution?
alukav5142 [94]

Nationalism is the identification with one's own nation and to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations. Hence the effect is negative.

<h3>Effect of nationalism on networks, production and distribution</h3>

Nationalism affect networks, production and distribution in such a way that a significant proportion of consumers will not be willing to buy imported produce from countries that are in conflict with theirs. Hence, those whose ethnocentric and economic-centric relationship are strong would exhibit this trait.

The implication is that networking of good to to such country will be distorted, low production may set in, and by extension, distribution may need to follow other channels.

Therefore, the effects will be enormous and very negative to the producing countries.
