ANALYZING HISTORICAL PROCESSES THROUGH THE ACTIVITIES OF WOMEN
Keywords:
Women in history, historical processes, gender analysis, social transformation, women’s agencyAbstract
This article explores historical processes through a comprehensive analysis of women’s activities in different historical periods. For a long time, traditional historiography has prioritized political events and military achievements, often overlooking women’s contributions to social, economic, cultural, and intellectual life. By examining women’s roles in family structures, education, labor, political movements, and cultural transmission, this study argues that women were active agents of historical change.
