[Woman and Politics]. Zhenshchina i Politika.

First Russian edition.

Lily Braun (1865-1916), a German feminist writer and politician of the Social Democratic Party. She wrote about the exploitation of female labor under various economic systems, the necessity of insurance, the politics of women's rights in different parties, and responsibilities of women in the political struggle. The book was translated from the German edition Die Frauen und die Politik (first published Berlin, 1903).


Very likely this book was issued by the important female publisher Mariia Malykh (1879-1967). Her Marxist publishing house was mostly concentrated on social and political themes. The literature, which she was afraid to publish legally under her own name, she edited under the name of the nonexistent 'Molot' publishing house (not to be confused with the same name publisher, which worked in Odessa and was also engaged in the publication of political issues).
