Women and Family in China

Women and Family in China

This course offers an in depth examination of women and family life in China from 1600 to the present. It begins by exploring major issues in traditional Chinese
society: marriage and family life, foot binding, and the cult of female chastity. Then we will study women’s role and changes of family life in successive political
and social revolutions of the 20th century. The last part of the course will be devoted to examine gender relations in China since the country was opened to market
economy and international trade. We will look at the effect of ideologies (Confucianism, nationalism, and socialism) on women and family, and also differences between
ideology and social practice.
