A global approach to feminist labour history adds new contents and insights.

Worlds of Women in ARAB’s Collections – A Short Introduction


Clara Zetkin has sent letters sent both to the Social Democratic women’s organization and to leading Social Democrats in Sweden.

Networking with men from the movement was often essential for women in order to develop their own organizations and groups and Zetkin’s letters to male leaders of the labour movement illustrate this.
