Soviet 'Civic-Minded Women' in the 1930s: Gender, Class, and Industrialization in a Socialist Society
1999
During the mid-1930s, the wives of Soviet industrial managers, engineers, and technicians began organizing into volunteer groups devoted to improving the living and working conditions at the factories where their husbands worked. Soviet historians generally have treated these obshchestvennitsy (civic-minded women, or female activists) as evidence of the social stratification that occurred during the Stalin era. But analysis of the socioeconomic context in which these women emerged suggests that this women's \"movement\" played an important part in resolving a variety of \"reproductive crises\" which had arisen as a result of the rapid industrialization campaign of the 1930s. By emphasizing the \"culturedness,\" or \"refinement\" (kul'turnost'), of these elite wives, the Soviet regime assigned the obshchestvennitsy a hegemonic role in defining the socialist culture of the future. This \"civilizing\" function of the wives' movement parallels philanthropic activities of bourgeois women during similar crises associated with industrialization of European nations and the United States.

“In an era where morals are undergoing a major upset, when actions which used to be kept under wraps are brought out into the open, ‘The Babysitter’ is daring and current as next week’s news,” read the publicity material for the hot new movieThe Babysitter(1969).¹ The sexually provocative film about a liaison between a babysitter and her middle-aged boss featured Candy, who represented the “sexually active girl”—at least as adult males in the 1960s imagined her. Exaggerated fantasies about female adolescent sexuality in movies like this expressed new erotic possibilities for American men excited by the sexual
