Women's Role in Revolutions in Iran and China

Regardless of location, the revolution always influences the role of women in society, and on their own. Several revolutions give women more opportunities, but other revolutions restrict them to in-home servants. During the Chinese revolution in 1949, women gained greater rights and freedom and joined various fields of women's state relief allies, but the right to education was given to women in urban areas, but in rural areas It was not given to. In Iran, the revolution in 1979, the problem was opposed Women wanted equal opportunities and gender rights.

The Islamic Revolution of Iran in 1979 has had a permanent impact on the social role of modern Iranian women. Iranian women before the revolution were not thought to be equivalent to men, but in some cultural beliefs it was thought that women were not as good as men, but socially under Shah I made equal progress. Several misunderstandings and theories have been published and studied to show inequality between women and men caused by Islam. But the theory of contrast also proved that inequality has little to do with religion, but it is related to the powerful nature of the revolution.

Women's role in the field of science and technology is very big. My interpretation of Chinese history shows that women play an important role in regional expansion and the formation of economic growth. The same could be said about the cultural revolution. There, women occupied an important position in addition to their wives and girlfriends as cultural leaders. The same can be said for this generation. All the startups and technology companies I visit have women in senior or leadership positions, many of whom are responsible for setting company strategic goals. Many people are actually founders. I am convinced that China has tolerance and equality problems, but in fact, I know - these companies have female leaders. This is a good sign.

When the Iranian revolution began in 1977, many women protested the march of the big city and used harassment as a sign of protest. Women have played an important role in the success of the revolution. Their roles were praised and encouraged by the revolutionary leader Khomeini pointed out in various speech. We must not forget the activities of women, especially confrontation. Through conscious beliefs, Iranian women can become elements of a revolutionary, political and conscious battle ... truly, women never get late in any area, no battlefield. (Ayatollah Khomeini, June 3, 1987)
