 | | As ambassador to Norway and Sweden, as a trade delegate to Mexico, as a delegate to the League of Nations, and as negotiator of the Finno-Soviet peace treaty of 1940, she served the USSR with what was generally regarded as great finesse. |  | | In June she was a Russian delegate to the 9th Congress of the Finnish Social Democratic Party and reported back to the First All-Russian Congress of Soviets on the national question and Finland. |  | | Kollontai's illness continued through much of 1920, but by November she had become head of the Zhenotdel following the death of Inessa Armand, and at December 8th All-Russian Congress of Soviets she was elected a member of the Executive Committee. |

| | Girl+Boy - Alexandra Kollontai |
 | | This is unfair, though, as the reforms she advocated did liberate Soviet women from the slavery of housework at the outset of the new society. |  | | Kollontai exemplifies this with agrarian communities in Africa where women are the main contributors to the tribal economy, and where they hence have more political power than the men do. |  | | She argues that in those older societies in which women have a more productive part, they were more equal to the men. |

 | | Alexandra Kollontai (1873-1952), the daughter of a czarist general, was a prominent participant in the Russian Social-Democratic movement. |  | | Kollontai ultimately attained the rank of ambassador in 1943, the first woman in the world to achieve this distinction. |  | | Many ideas expressed in her works were branded as libertine both in the Soviet Union and the West, yet Kollontai helped to expand the concept of "women's issues." She considered family, sex and sexuality, and personal politics as important to the betterment of women's status and role in society as the right to vote. |
