Description

Barbara Entwisle (ed); Gail E. Henderson (ed). Representing the culmination of more than a decade of empirical research in post-Mao China, the essays in this collection explore changes in the nature of work in relation to changes in households, in migration patterns, & in gender roles during an era of economic reform. Uses a variety of data & diverse approaches to gauge the impact of new economic opportunities on Chinese households & workplaces. Reveals that clear concepts of work, household, & gender are elusive, especially in times of rapid social & economic change. This wide-ranging & well-integrated study will appeal to those interested in contemporary China & gender studies, as well as to social scientists concerned with market reforms, stratification, & mobility.
