- Abstract / Summary
- TITLE: The Woman Worker: Social Democratic Journal Representing the Interests of Working Women, Vol. IV, No. 6. DESCRIPTION: This journal issue is part of a selection of journals documenting the history of the Hungarian-speaking women’s movement in the Hungarian Kingdom in the Habsburg Monarchy. This digital archive includes all items available at the Institute of Political History (Politikatörténeti Intézet) in Budapest for the period from foundation of the journal in 1905 to 1908. The journal was published with interruptions. After 1908, it was revived at the end of 1912, only with substantial financial backing and more control by the Social-Democratic Party of Hungary (Magyarországi Szociáldemokrata Párt). The voluminous stock of the journal as published in this later period, including World War I, is available at the Institute of Political History. Nőmunkás (The Woman Worker) gave information on the activism of organized social democratic women in Hungary. It regularly reports about the activities of the Association of Woman Workers in Hungary (Magyarországi Munkásnők Országos Egyesülete) and, later, on the National Organizational Committee of the Woman Workers of Hungary (Magyarországi nőmunkások országos szervezőbizottsága). The journal gave information about the national conferences of social democratic women. Nőmunkás called women to socialist activism, reported on the activities of the woman Comrades in Austria (Cisleithania), regularly gave information on social democracy and social democratic women internationally, commented on political developments and repression in Hungary and elsewhere, and discussed these events as well as social and political questions more generally, with reference to the questions of class and gender. The journal constitutes a key source of information on the social democratic women’s movement in Hungary and its international context. Of note, the subtitle of the first issue published referred to the journal as “socialist” rather than “social-democratic.” KEYWORDS: Social Reform and Political Activism; Rent Usury; Political Parties and Other Male Dominated Organizations; Socialism; Work and Class Identity; Domestic Workers; Domestic Servants; Labor Standards; Gender and Class; Habsburg Empire; Hungary; Mrs. Simon Bogdány; Mary S.
