Opis

China's one-child family policy has been applauded by demographers and condemned by human rights activists. This study argues that most city district Chinese women would prefer more children yet comply with the one-child policy because they accept the moral legitimacy of state policy.

First Published in 1996. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
