 | Women and Work in Russia, 1880-1930: A Study in Continuity Through Change Subjects: Humanities; Politics & International Relations; History; Regulatory Policy; World/ International History; Modern History 1750-1945; Women''s & Gender History; Social Policy; This study considers the impact of industrialisation, revolution and world war on women's working lives in Russia. Unlike existing studies this new text looks at women from all social classes. In the process the authors reveal how the stereotypical portrayal of Russian women's work as a struggle of endurance and sacrifice distorts and oversimplifies the reality of their experience between 1880 and 1930.
