Anarcha-feminism – Radical feminism espouses the belief that patriarchy is a fundamental problem in our society. Feminist anarchism, or anarcha-feminism (a term allegedly created during in 1960’s second-wave feminism), views patriarchy as the first manifestation of hierarchy in human history; thus, the first form of oppression occurred in the dominance of male over female. Anarcha-feminism is most often associated with early 20th-century authors and theorists such as Emma Goldman and Voltairine de Cleyre, although even early first-wave feminist Mary Wollstonecraft held proto-anarchist views. In the Spanish Civil War, an anarcha-feminist group, Mujeres Libres (Free Women), organized to defend both anarchist and feminist ideas.

Mileva Maric was the wife of Albert Einstein..
Her life-story has remained rather unknown although her true participation in discovering the theory of relativity cannot be denied anymore. Nonetheless it is still difficult to find her name in most scientific encyclopedia where she should be present alongside Marie Curie-Sklodowska.. Today Mileva Maric Einstein is remembered by many, among them the NGO “Mileva Maric Einstein Women’s Studies and Research” in Novi Sad, who is a cooperating partner in the ewec Project.

International Women’s Day had its modest beginnings in 1908 when the Socialist Party in the US appointed a Women's National Committee to Campaign for the Suffrage. This Committee recommended that the Party set aside a day every year to campaign for women's right to vote. On March 8, 1908 a first mass meeting on women’s rights was organised. Seconded by socialist women leaders from other countries the proposal was passed by the International Socialist Congress in Copenhagen in May 1910 and International Women’s Day was born.
While in its early days celebrated as a socialist holiday honouring working women it was reclaimed by feminists in the late 1960s to celebrate women's lives and work which inspired new interest in a number of countries where the holiday had previously not been observed.

In 1920 women’s right to vote was included in the first Charter of independent Czechoslovakia. In 1905 when the change of the Election Code was started, Czech women did not yet get the right to vote (they would have been the first ones in Europe since Finnish women, who were the first, only got the right to vote in 1906). On the other hand the Code from 1861 did not really say that women could not be elected. Thus, in the election to the Czech Regional Congress in 1908, the Social-Democratic Party nominated one woman on its candidate list. She was not successful in the second round; however, it was the very first political success of Czech women.
In 1918 when independent Czechoslovakia was founded, women still did not have their right to vote.

Congratulations!
