By focusing on female industrial workers in postwar Poland, Malgorzata Fidelis demonstrates that women, in fact, were central to the making of communist society both as subjects of policies and ideology, and as powerful historical agents in their own right. This book uncovers a dynamic story of political contestation between state and society, in which ideas and practices of gender played a surprisingly pivotal role. Through fascinating material ranging from previously untapped party and secret police records to ordinary people, ⁴s̥ letters to the press and oral interviews, the book offers new insights on the social impact of war, struggles on the shop-floor, the challenges of incorporating village girls into fast-moving industrial society, the societal resistance against women entering male-dominated occupations, and finally the unexpected consequences of liberalization and reform"--Provided by publisher. 000343324 650_0 $$aWomen communists$$zPoland$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000343324 650_0 $$aWomen$$zPoland$$xSocial conditions. 000343324 650_0 $$aPost-communism$$zPoland$$xHistory. 000343324 651_0 $$aPoland$$xEconomic conditions$$y1945- 000343324 85200 $$bgen$$hHX315.7.A6$$iF53$$i2010 000343324 85642 $$3Contributor biographical information$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1001/2009040266-b.html 000343324 85641 $$3Table of contents only$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1001/2009040266-t.html 000343324 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1002/2009040266-d.html 000343324 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:343324$$pGLOBAL_SET 000343324 980__ $$aBIB 000343324 980__ $$aBOOK
