The problem of women's rights, the place and role of women in society has deeply troubled the
great thinker, one of the prominent representatives of Azerbaijani emigration literature, Ahmad Aghaoglu
since the beginning of his creative work. In general, we observe that the idea of women having equal rights
with men in all spheres of social life, especially in education, legal system and politics, is promoted to one
degree or another in A. Aghaoglu's literary, literary-philosophical, journalistic works. His literary-philosop
hical and literary-documentary prose examples, titled “Among the New Generation”, “Both Right and
Wrong”, “Between Two Women”, “A Great Woman Who Played a Role in France for Nearly a Century”,
“Address of Our President to the Americans”, “Like a Single Person”, which are typical in this respect, have
been subjected to scientific research and analyzed in our article for the first time. The mentioned works touch
upon the important problems of the period described, the essence of the reforms initiated by the great leader
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, who gave women the right to vote and be elected in the Republic of Turkey, the ef
forts of women to assert their rights and the results arising from this are explained. The research concludes that the problems raised in the works written almost 100 years ago are still relevant
today to one degree or another and have serious socio-political significance. Thus, ensuring women's rights is
the basis of a healthy family, and a healthy family environment is one of the factors ensuring state security.
The aforementioned Works of A.Aghaoglu are valuable artistic examples that protect women's rights and
promote women's social activity.
