Whereas conventional historical accounts of European communism tend to delegate women to the margins, Malgorzata Fidelis' study of female industrial workers in postwar Poland proves that women were central to the making of communist society. Her research highlights the pivotal role of ideas and practices of gender in political contestation between state and society.
