Irene Stoehr (February 16, 1941, in Brzeg – February 26, 2023, in Berlin) was a German feminist historical social scientist and journalist. Her main research interests were the feminist movement and gender history in the 20th century.[1]

Life

She was one of the twelve professors who organized the first Berlin Summer University for Women at the FU Berlin in 1976, where the main themes of the new women's movement were discussed.[2]

From 1982 to 1984, she was the editor and writer of the first national feminist monthly Courage and together with Eva Maria Appel she edited the feminist magazine Unterschiede (Differences) from 1991 to 1993.[3] [4]

In 2002, together with Rita Pawlowski, she created the "first critical analysis of the 50-year-old journal of the German Women's Council". Inge von Boeninghausen, then head of the National Council of German Women's Organizations, wrote in the foreword that the authors record "important steps in the struggle for equal rights for women, which has been a constitutional principle since 1949, but is still far from a living reality", using the example of individual policy areas.[5]
