WOMEN IN THE SOVIET UNION
Journal Title: Revista Universitara de Sociologie - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
Women born in the 20th century were different from their grandmothers. Throughout the world women raised their voices, as they sought to prove to men and to themselves that they deserved equality with men in all aspects of life. The Soviet Union was one of the first countries in the World to equate men and women in rights and provide the same opportunities for both sexes. Yet it is to be mentioned that it was not done due to the humane ideals. The USSR saw women’s great potential in both production and expansion of the communist ideology. The legacy of the Soviet Epoque still lingers in the post-Soviet space and Eastern Europe and in order to apprehend the essence of the existing problems, a look back is required. This article tackles the gender issues and difficulties of Soviet women as well as emphasizes the achievements and failure of the Era. In order to write the article, the author analyzed a vast number of secondary sources, visual arts of the epoque, used comparative method to compare the difference in cultures and its implications for women of that specific culture on the Soviet territory as well as statistical data of nowadays, which is closely tied to the results of the Soviet legacy
