Sažetak
The Ustasha movement sought to ideologise a „Croatian woman“ who „releases“ herself from the idea of equality and sacrifices herself for the benefit of the „people’s community“ – only in the patriarchal role of the mother and educator of the „Aryan race.“ This propaganda image of a woman in the war years could not be realized because the mobilisation of women workers in various professions was necessary for the survival of the Independent State of Croatia. Members of the Ustasha movement, who actively supported Pavelic’s organization from the beginning, were very rarely confined to the role of mother. As functionaries, they politically participated in the formation of a new state, leading the „Female Ustasha Youth“ and the „Women’s Vine of the Croatian Ustasha Movement“ where they were tasked with spreading Ustasha propaganda and mobilising girls and women in the movement. Neither the support of the criminal system was merely the domain of male Ustasha members. Article based on the publication „Verwicklung. Beteiligung. Unrecht. Frauen und die Ustaša-Bewegung“ (Involvement. Participation. Injustice. Women and the Ustasha Movement) will focus on ideological opinions and opportunities for women to act in the fascist movement.
