Disrupting Historicity, Reclaiming the Future This volume is the result of the close collaboration between the University of Naples ”L’Orientale” and the scholars organizing and Università degli studi di Napoli participating in the postgraduate course Feminisms in a Transnational Perspective in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The contributions presented here “L’Orientale” use different conceptual approaches to theory, history and cultural texts, and to women’s lives, experiences and legacies, in order to offer their re-visions of the past and their prospects of the future as an act of feminist responsibility. Disrupting Historicity, Reclaiming the Future Disrupting Historicity, Reclaiming the Future is a complex, methodologically innovative, and valuable collection of scholarly works. Pointing to mimetic and absent places (themes, artefacts, female figures, suppressed Others, acts of resistance) within great historical narratives and the importance of a different kind of reading and researching of heritage, archived sociality, and the future, the essays collected here signal the potency of feminist epistemology to assume responsibility in the ‘re-semantization of the contemporaneity’. The texts show how, with which tools, and through which critical lenses, feminist epistemology gives answers to the overwhelming problems of modernity, having in mind the centrality of emancipatory values of women’s heritage and insight. (Prof. Biljana Kašić, University of Zadar, Croatia) The collected book of proceedings Disrupting Historicity, Reclaiming the Future represents a valuable publication that includes multiple perspectives, problems and concepts of feminist research (...) from a wide range of approaches: from analyzing historical materials, archives, new discoveries to an overview of the lives and works of female Disrupting Historicity, Reclaiming the Future philosophers, the predecessors of gender studies, literary and film criticism, etc. Of particular, perhaps even decisive importance is that some of the authors speak and reflect on their own place in writing “from the European semi-periphery” and “from the ruins of disrupted, denied or instrumentalized socialist worlds”. With this they confront the growing dangers of the Americanization and Britishization of gender studies and bring to light phenomena that were forgotten “overnight”. (Prof. Eva D.

(Hortense Spillers) The aim of this volume is to intervene both in the ways women inherit the past and open up towards the future, mobilizing feminist epistemology and feminist legacy in order to establish the agenda of a hospitable Europe and a collaborative world, a humanistic university and a peer reading sisterhood instead of the fallacy of excellence and academic proficiency. It is the critical incentive for the authors of the contributions presented here – who use different conceptual approaches to theory, history and cultural texts, but also to women’s lives, experiences and legacies – to reveal the strategies that we have used and still use in historical and sociocultural locations in order to confront the ‘foreclusionary structures’ of the grand narratives and to establish a more intimate relationship with the ghosts of a traumatic past and the promises of a future that cannot be fully anticipated. Although most authors focus on the theoretical reverberation of silenced, neglected and insufficiently explored women’s discourses, social criticism is the corollary of a shared endeavor – encouraged by the Dubrovnik feminist course1 – because, as Linda Nicholson notices: ¹ The edited volume Disrupting Historicity, Reclaiming the Future consists of selected proceedings from three sessions of the postgraduate course Feminisms in a Transnational Perspective (held in May 2014, 2015, and 2016 respectively). This postgraduate course started in 2007 at the Inter-University Centre Dubrovnik, an independent international centre for advanced studies, in order to connect feminist scholars and activists from the North and South of Europe with the idea 6 — DISRUPTING HISTORICITY, RECLAIMING

Introduction – general considerations 2 The opportunity for Rijeka to compete in the final round for the title of European Capi- tal of Culture has given us great pleasure. The first step was to fully understand the 1. contribution to the long-term strategy 9 We have achieved good alignment between the existing clear and sustainable strategy of Rijeka and the boost it is given by a project such as ECOC and its 2. european dimension 17 Naturally it was very stimulating to coalesce with more than hundred international part- ners in developing and structuring of great 3. cultural & artistic content 21 that is not only a collection of serious artistic pro- ductions and projects but also a broader take on the totality of human condition. Deep underlying concept of Port of Diversity was translated to topics of Work, Water and Migrations and a number of great initia- tives. The ambitious programme will be a test for our 4. capacity to deliver 73 but we are confident that the heterogeneous cul- tural scene of Rijeka – fully supported by the City Council – will prove again it's seriousness and stamina. Existing and new infrastructures will host cultural programmes that are not merely there to be adored but are ushering a new era of 5. outreach 80 that is extended to dimensions of learning and participation. We are preparing a genuinely inclusive and invigorating set of frameworks and platforms that will change the way in which each citizen and visitor of Rijeka sees her or his own partici- pation in the public sphere.

Dapače, radi se o kamenu temeljcu na kojemu sustav počiva. U tom je pak slučaju gradnja kolektiva kamen temeljac otpora. Pitanje organizacije i uloge kolektiva javlja se i u raspravama oko političkog organiziranja u feminističkim krugovima, gdje se ponekad javlja rascjep teorije i prakse: naime, puno je lakše govoriti o kolektivu u teoriji nego raditi na praksama koje bi omogućile da kolektiv zaista funkcionira.

    Originalni naučni rad UDK 316.66-055.2(497.1)"1918/1939" Ana Rajković* Croatian Institute of History Department for the History of Slavonia, Srijem and Baranja THE POSITION OF FEMALE WORKERS IN YUGOSLAVIA BETWEEN THE TWO WORLD WARS A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE 1918 1939 Abstract: The position of female workers from the middle of the 19th century, when they took a more active role in the world of work, was marked with double oppression, both gender- and class-conditioned. After World War I there was a strong conviction that legal framework would be changed and that it would enable women to have an equal social and political status. Although this did not happen, women still participat- ed in the public domain. They were particularly active in the working sphere, which provided them with a more active social role, especially when it came to numerous strikes which were primarily a response to economic circumstances or demands for collective agreements and better working conditions. Within this context, the aim of the paper is to analyse the position of female workers in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, placing special emphasis on their social status and strikes as a means of gender and class emancipation. This analysis is conducted within the frameworks of microhistory and comparative history in order to create a thesis that women’s labour movement, influenced by communist ideas, was an important component of the Yugo- slav labour movement in the interwar years, and that it had an impact on the formation and strengthening of the class and gender awareness in Yugoslav female workers.
