Feminism can be defined as a social movement and worldview that advocates improving the position of women by eliminating gender domination and discrimination (sexism) and promoting gender equality in all areas of life. Feminism appeared in the 17th and 18th centuries, developed through three waves, ecofeminism and cyberfeminism. Feminism consolidated its roots in Croatia during the period of socialist Yugoslavia. The feminism movement is aimed at overthrowing patriarchy and establishing matriarchy. Croatia pays more and more attention to gender equality, although women make up almost half of the active population compared to men, they still rarely decide to start entrepreneurial activities, and there are insufficient numbers of women in managerial positions. In principle, according to the law, women in the Republic of Croatia have equal opportunities and opportunities for advancement and reaching leading positions at all levels, however, in practice the situation is different, especially in rural areas. Despite all the obstacles, the position of women in Croatia has improved, women achieve a higher level of education and a large number of women are employed in public administration, the largest number of employed women is in the judiciary.
