Non-female jobs of the Soviet women in the 1930s (a study based on the magazine 'Rabornica' (Female worker))
The aim of the article is to shed light over the work of the well-known Soviet female magazine «Rabotnitsa» during the 1930s. At that time women were considered to be additional working force for needs of industrialization. This very approach determined the main features of gender equality propaganda. This propaganda work included the promotion of the idea of women mastering male jobs. «Rabotnitsa» as well as the other Soviet female editions did not take into account the preferences of the female audience. The aim of this magazine was to give a professional education to women and to spread the reports devoted to women labour exploits.
