AP European History
Unit 9 – Cold War and Contemporary Europe
Topic 9.3
How would a feminist perspective interpret women's labor role changes during the post-World War II recovery period influenced by the Cold War?
Women were primarily discouraged from working as focus shifted more towards domesticity and traditional gender roles across Europe.
The post-war recovery period resulted in fewer opportunities for women in the workforce due to male soldiers returning home.
Despite increased labor participation, gender wage gaps persisted, and women's work was often undervalued or confined to "traditional" roles.
Women had complete economic equality with men due to increased labor demand during the recovery period.
