HISTORY OF CREATION OF UN SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION 1325 "WOMEN, PEACE AND SECURITY"

Summary/Abstract: Throughout history, women have had a subordinate position. Some evidence dates back to ancient Greece, where the relationships between masters and slaves, fathers and children, and between men and women were clearly defined in every household. All these relationships were based on male dominance. Given the given situation of inequality, legal rules were not needed. Thus, men are "destined" to become rulers and to have a dominant role and position in relation to women in family, love, politics or work. Women did not have significant positions in society, nor did they participate to a significant extent in decision-making processes. Women were housewives who took care of children and the household, they often went to war and did not have significant decision-making positions in society. The position of women and men has long been unbalanced, but women and men are equally capable, effective and valuable, and the action of the United Nations represents an extraordinary progress of the modern world in solving the problem of gender subordination. In the 20th century, women began to raise issues related to gender roles, the role and position of women in society, and gender equality. In recent years, one of the prominent issues is the role of women in wars and peace activities, and in the national and international security and defense sectors.
