Summary: | This study focuses on the efforts of Oyonnax’s socialists to change mentalities in their town, a community of small-scale industry based on family enterprises, a working-class fortress between the wars. The socialist leaders sought to reduce the masculine ambiance of the party and of the People’s House.
