Writing history in Turkey has always been problematical because of the role assigned to officiat history writing in the construction of the nation-state after Turkey emerged as a young Republic out of a nationalist struggle in 1923. Women's history has also been written within such an ideological perspective for a long time, telling about the benefits of the state-initiated reforms related to women and the mobilization of women within the nation-building project. Women have been depicted as thankful to the Republic by dedicated 'daughters of the Republic' almost assigned to praise the new women representing Turkish nation. (Inan, 1969; Taskiran, 1976)
