Summary/Abstract: Women’s history started in connection with the development of academic feminism in the post-marxist and post-structuralist era. Women were implanted into history as a part of political history. In Czech historical writing, these topics were somewhat scarcely present already at the end of 19th century, however, they never constituted an integral part of historiography. Original studies of “history of women” used to be based either on social sciences or on historical demography. However, there were several conferences about this problem held during the last twenty years. Women’s history is being constantly developed here these days, although still struggling with many methodological and methodical issues. Gender as an analytical category (used abroad since 1980s), on the other hand, is being introduced here only recently.
