## About this book

Gender Politics in the Western Balkans, Volume 1, provides a comprehensive analysis of women's consciousness and social status within the lands of the South Slavs. This academic work of feminism and political science examines the region from the early twentieth century through the Serbian Insurrectionary War of 1991-95. The text integrates historical data, cultural studies, and political analysis to explore the evolving roles of women in Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, and Bosnia.

The volume focuses heavily on the socialist experience in Yugoslavia, detailing the state's attempt to eliminate gender inequality through unique self-management systems. By utilizing essays from leading scholars in women's studies and former Yugoslav republics, Gender Politics in the Western Balkans evaluates the transition from traditional structures to post-socialist politics. This scholarly collection offers a detailed look at the intersection of gender, religion, and governance in the Western Balkans.
