Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses the ideology and propaganda of the Ravna Gora movement in relation to women. The expectations that the movement placed on women, as well as the roles, duties and rights that women were expected to fulfil during the war and in the post-war period are discussed. In this context, the anti-communist discourse in relation to women and its connection with conservative and patriarchal attitudes were studied in particular. The mutual relationship and influence of these factors were seen as the origin of opposition to the ideas of women's emancipation, but also to the modernization of society. Particular attention was paid to the changes in approach and the attempts to win over the female part of the population, as well as forming of women's organisations within the movement.
