Recenzje

'… Roces does an exceptional job explaining national developments and trends in terms of gender … Gender in South-east Asia is an accessible, impressively comprehensive and useful introduction to important themes within the vast field of gender studies in the region. Roces's observations on gender relations and kinship will surely serve as solid starting points for further research by scholars in the field.' Wikke Jansen
