Summary/Abstract: The study examines the emancipation in Hungarian-language press articles written for the female community of the 1930s, in three different Central and Eastern European countries. The journals were published in Hungary, Romania, and Czechoslovakia. The introduction is about the changes affecting women in the early 20th century. In the next part, I deal with the employment of women, social changes that affect them, and the advancement of emancipation. This is followed by a structural analysis of the sheets. The focus of the study is on the articles related to emancipation. It also provides insight into how perceptions of women’s employment, women’s equality, and changes in women’s roles in different press products for women were perceived inthe 1930s.
