Revolution Postponed: Women in Contemporary China
ISBN: 9780804712439 / Angielski / Twarda / 1985 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Communist revolution promised Chinese women an end to thousands of years of subjugation, an equality with men in all matters legal, political, social, and economic. This book examines the extent to which this promise has been kept. Based on nearly a year of field research and interviews with over 300 women in six widely separated rural and urban areas, it gives us a vivid picture of Chinese women today - their day-to-day lives, their views of the present, and their hopes for the future. To date nothing approximating equality has been achieved: in working conditions, in pay, in educational...

A Thrice-Told Tale: Feminism, Postmodernism, and Ethnographic Responsibility
ISBN: 9780804719803 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A Thrice-Told Tale is one ethnographer's imaginative and powerful response to the methodological issues raised by feminist and postmodernist critics of traditional ethnography. The author, a feminist anthropologist, uses three texts developed out of her research in Taiwan-a piece of fiction, anthropological fieldnotes, and a social science article-to explore some of these criticisms. Each text takes a different perspective, is written in a different style, and has different "outcomes," yet all three involve the same fascinating set of events. A young mother began to behave in a...

Women and the Family in Rural Taiwan
ISBN: 9780804708494 / Angielski / Miękka / 1972 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Studies of Chinese society commonly emphasizze men's roles and functions, a not unreasonable approach to a society with patrilineal kinship structure. But this emphasis has left many important gaps in our knowledge of Chinese life. This study seeks to fill some of these gaps by examining the ways rural Taiwanese women manipulate men and each other in the pursuit of their personal goals. The source of a woman's power, her home in a social structure dominated by men, is what the author calls the uterine family, a de facto social unity consisting of a mother and her children. The first four...
