With Cold War-style politics gripping Eastern Europe this week, it seems fitting that one of the most iconic Soviet holidays is upon us: International Womens Day, which began as a socialist celebration of womens economic, political and social achievements. The holiday has become a modern-day marker of womens progress worldwide, such as the narrowing of the gender gap in workplaces and the fact that women outnumber men among university graduates worldwide.
