  Presenting examinations of the lives of Bulgarian women, this ethnography challenges the idea that women have fared worse than men in Eastern Europe's transition from socialism to a market economy. It also highlights how, prior to 1989, the communist planners sought to create full employment for them and steered women into the service sector.
