Kvinnesaksnytt ("Women's Rights News") was a Norwegian journal on women's rights that included news and analysis of Norwegian and international women's rights issues. It was published by the liberal feminist Norwegian Association for Women's Rights, the country's main women's rights organization, from 1950 to 2016. It was the successor of the association's earlier journal Nylænde (1887–1927).

History

Eva Kolstad, editor-in-chief 1963–1968

The journal was established in 1950 as a successor to the association's former journal Nylænde, which was published 1887–1927 with Gina Krog and Fredrikke Mørck as editors. It was published as a printed journal, with the exception of the last issue, which only appeared electronically. The journal contained news and commentary on Norwegian and international women's rights issues from the perspective of the bourgeois-liberal women's rights movement, often with a legal perspective, and was NKF's most important publication for 66 years. Among the issues the journal covered were marriage legislation, equal pay, gender roles, gender equality law, the establishment of the Gender Equality Council and the Gender Equality Ombud, gender-discriminatory advertising, CEDAW and gender and development.

The editors-in-chief included Ingerid Gjøstein Resi, Marit Aarum, Eva Kolstad, Kari Skjønsberg, Karin M. Bruzelius, Torild Skard and Margunn Bjørnholt.[1][2]
