New Modern Chinese Women and Gender Politics: The Centennial of the End of the Qing Dynasty: Routledge Research on Gender in Asia, cartea 07

Editat de Chen Ya-Chen
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 iun 2014
The past century witnessed dramatic changes in the lives of modern Chinese women and gender politics, including the introduction of Chinese women’s equal rights, possibilities for career development and overseas travel, and the gender politics of non-heterosexuality and same-sex concerns. Some revolutionary actions to rectify the feudalist patriarchy, such as foot-binding and polygyny were first seen in the late Qing period; however, the termination of the Qing Dynasty and establishment of Republican China in 1911-1912 initiated true nation-wide constitutional reform with the onset of gender egalitarianism, including feminist thought and queer issues. Taking a multi-disciplinary approach using the lens of film, history, literature and personal experience, this book will be of huge interest to students and scholars of Chinese culture and society, women's studies, gender studies and gender politics.
