Women workers of Ivanovo (1930s)
On the Stalin’s Soviet Union map as “Ivanovo”
1930s — The “Russian Manchester”, a textile city where most workers were women. As women’s share of industrial jobs rose sharply in the 1930s, they kept the housework, the queuing and the childcare as well, the “double burden” that the decree of June 1936 made heavier.
