The contribution aims to retrace some particularly significant moments of the commitment of Nilde Iotti in promoting women’s rights. Iotti, a founding mother of the Republic and prominent figure of the Italian Communist Party (PCI), fought for the democratization of Italian society through women’s emancipation. This essay focuses on Iotti’s public role and political action from the election to the Constituent Assembly (1946) until the late Seventies. In 1979, indeed, Nilde Iotti - the “Lady of the Republic” – was elected President of the Chamber, as a result of a life devoted to political engagement. In particular, the focus of the essay is on Iotti’s major effort in supporting family transformations in Italian society, mainly on the role of women.
