Informed by a more inclusive approach to women’s activist histories and subaltern studies, this article develops a new perspective on the periodization and geography of the international and Hungarian history of women’s social movements, to contribute to the historiographies of peasant women’s labour activism in the Eastern European countryside.enCC BY-NC-ND 4.0http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Journal article
