The present study, based on Georg Simmel's theoretical framework and concepts such as monetary economy, consumption, women's work, contentment, extravagance, and marriage for money, analyzes the role of urban women in the family's economic management during the Qajar period. This study examines the urban society of the Qajar period, focusing on newspapers published in Iran between 1319 and 1343 AH.Women during the Qajar period were divided into three groups: urban, rural, and tribal, each of which played a different role in the family economy; while rural and tribal women had a more direct participation in household production and income,the role of urban women was mainly managerial and supervisory and was defined within the framework of consumption and organizing the household economy. The newspapers of that period reflect the society's attitude towards changing and improving the role of urban women in the family economy.By criticizing extravagance and preference for imported goods,these newspapers encouraged women to be content and defined a new role for them.Also,encouraging income generation through handicraft training and women-only factories were proposed as solutions for economic empowerment.Newspapers also pointed out the social consequences of unemployment and lack of job opportunities for women and examined its relationship with non-normative behaviors, which was one of the critical methods that newspapers continuously pursued.The research, with a descriptive-analytical approach, by analyzing the qualitative content of newspapers and using library resources,answers the question of how urban women played a role in family economic management and what newspapers' attitude was towards this role.The findings show that newspapers were active in changing the traditional attitude towards the economic role of urban women and encouraged them to have relative economic independence, make decisions in marriage, and maintain personal dignity; an issue that can be explained by the components of monetary economy and consumption in Simmel's theory.
