Undergraduate thesis focuses on the attitude of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia towards women's equality, or solving the so-colled women question, using the exemple of activities of Slovenian Anti-Fascist Women's Union, renamed after the war to Women's Antifascist Front of Slovenia, which existed between 1943 and 1953. Through archival material, newspaper articles and literature written on the subject, it attempts to establish the attitude of the Communist Party and its allied organisations towards women's equality and the work of the Women's Antifascist Front of Slovenia. It also seeks to establish the degree of autonomy that the Women's Antifascist Front of Slovenia has enjoyed in the different periods of its existence and its contribution to the improvement of the position of women in society. On the one hand, it focuses on the subject from a formal, organisational perspective, examining the Communist Party's attitude towards the AFZ through three key points - its formation, reorganisation and dissolution, and on the other hand, it also focuses on the perception of women's roles and positions in society at the time. It also highlights the achievements and importance of the AFZ for women. The liberation struggle was a watershed time for women, who were systematically involved in it both on the battlefields and on the home front. They thus made history and their actions have had a profound impact on their subsequent position in society.
