Marie-Elisabeth Lueders (1878–1966) was a German politician. She was involved in advocating reform of divorce laws, as well as laws that stated that women required a husband's permission to work. In 1927, she submitted an article to "Die Form", the Werkbund journal, criticizing the houses designed by Mies van der Rohe in order to alleviate the housing shortage of the time. According to Lueders, van der Rohe's designs created houses that were unsafe and impractical.
