Małgorzata Dajnowicz, prof. UwB, takes up the subject of the social roles performed by women in the period of the Polish People’s Republic. The aim of the work is to show changes in the propagated personal patterns of Polish women and to present the relationship between the content of materials published in “Kobieta i Życie” [Woman and Life] and the then economic and political situation of the country.

Texts on the social roles were analyzed in eight thematic categories: mother, wife, unmarried woman, housewife, employee, politically active woman, woman in higher education and science, and feminist.
