Abstract
Tema rada bila je istraživanje ženskih prava na primjeru žena u Egiptu. Općenito, sama arapska kultura je za nas zapadnjake nešto nepoznato i mistično. Pitanje o položaju žena naspram muškaraca provlačilo se još u davnoj povijesti. Feminizam je u Egiptu bio prisutan od 1953. godine pa sve do danas. Feministkinje su osnivale aktivističke grupe te se borile za jednakost žena u egipatskom društvu. Ženska prava u Egiptu su se s godinama pogoršala, a razlog tome je velik broj slučajeva seksualnog uznemiravanja, diskriminatornih zakona, prisilnog vjenčavanja i jačanja konzervativnih islamističkih grupa. Stope sudjelovanja žena u radnoj snazi u Egiptu bile su niske i relativno smanjene tijekom vremena. Pobačaj, žensko obrezivanje i planiranje obitelji uvijek su izazivali snažnu raspravu unutar egipatskog društva. Reproduktivna prava u Egiptu nisu na poželjnoj razini, jer su mnoge teme vezane uz reproduktivno zdravlje i dan danas tabui, a problem ranog ulaska u brak još uvijek postoji u ruralnim područjima Gornjeg Egipta. Seksualno uznemiravanje žena je fenomen koji je ujedno pokazatelj lošijeg položaja žena u egipatskom društvu. U ovom radu predmet istraživanja bila je medijska slika žene u Egiptu kroz istraživanje egipatskih online medija Egyptian Streets i Scoop Empire. Na temelju analize medijskih tekstova objavljivanih u periodu od 30.7.2014. do 20.7.2017. godine došlo se do zaključka koliko i kako su egipatske žene prikazivane u tim medijima.

Parallel abstract (English)
The topic of the paper was a study of women's rights on the example of women in Egypt. In general, the Arab culture itself is something unknown and mystical to us. The question about the position of women versus men continues in ancient history. Feminism has been present in Egypt since 1953 so far. Feminists founded activist groups and fought for the equality of women in Egyptian society. Women's rights in Egypt have worsened with years, and the reason for this is many cases of sexual harassment, discrimination laws, forced marriages and the strengthening of conservative Islamist groups. The rates of participation of women in the labor force in Egypt were low and relatively reduced over time. Abuse, female circumcision, and family planning have always provoked a strong discussion within Egyptian society. Reproductive rights in Egypt are not at a desirable level, because many topics related to reproductive health are today's taboos, and the problem of early entry into marriage still exists in the rural areas of Upper Egypt. Sexual harassment of women is a phenomenon which is also a sign of not so good position of women in Egyptian society. This paper explores the media image of women in Egypt through the study of Egyptian online media in Egyptian Streets and Scoop Empire. Based on the analysis of media texts published in the period of 30.7.2014. until 20.7.2017. conclusion was made to how Egyptian women were shown in these media.
