Description: "For the first time in history, real equality has been achieved between men and women in the USSR and the countries of the world socialist system. The authors use tangible facts to show how under socialism the state and the Communist Parties involve women in social production and state administration, guarantee them an education, are concerned about maternity and child protection, and so on. The books describes the struggle mounted by the women in capitalist countries in order to secure their rights, and tells of the successes that they have achieved in this struggle. The authors dwell on the development of the women's movement, its achievements and tasks in the developing countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America. A special section deals with the activities of the Women's International Democratic Federation." -- from dust jacket.
