Summary/Abstract: Along with the development and spread of feminism and women’s movements in the 1970s, there was an expansion of scientific works on women through a history of different spectrum and significance. Thanks to the competence and agility of contemporary historians, a departure from feminism has been established and an independent historiographical direction in the study of women’s history has been formed. In these half centuries of opening the women’s issue and the visibility of the role of women throughout history, numerous scientific works have emerged that shed light on this important and undeniable side of history that has long been marginalized through traditional science. Women’s history as a historiographical direction is not yet institutionalized in all national universities of developed societies, but the history of women and their importance in social development is being studied more and more intensively, which can be seen from the increased number of published works. Recent literature in the first two decades of the 21st century shows that women’s history is written not only by women but also by men, and that integrity and legitimacy are achieved through an interdisciplinary method.
