Zusammenfassung:This volume includes 14 articles translated from the leading academic history journal in China, 'Historical Studies of Contemporary China' ('Dangdai Zhongguo shi yanjiu'). It offers a rare window for the English speaking world to learn how scholars in China have understood and interpreted central issues pertaining to women and family from the founding of the PRC to the reform era. Chapters cover a wide range of topics, from women's liberation, women's movement and women's education, to the impact of marriage laws and marriage reform, and changing practices of conjugal love, sexuality, family life and family planning. The volume invites further comparative inquiries into the gendered nature of the socialist state and the meanings of socialist feminism in the global context.
"The study of women and family in the People's Republic of China (PRC) has undergone tremendous changes since the PRC first opened its doors to Western scholars in the early 1980s. This first generation found that the Communist promises of gender equality and women's liberation remained largely unfulfilled, and that a "socialist patriarchy" had only reinforced the old gender hierarchy in all aspects of social and political life ... It includes translations of 14 articles that appear from 1994 to 2014 on the Historical Studies of Contemporary China (Dangdai Zhongguo shi yanjiu 当代中国史研究), a leading academic journal published by the Institute of Contemporary China at the China Academy of Social Sciences... Most of these 14 articles deal with the Maoist time from the 1950s to late 1970s."
