About the product

Land reforms and economic and social changes since 1949 have had substantial impact on the lives of the rural population of China. This publication examines some of the effects of these changes in the lives of women in two areas of the country with different levels of economic development focusing on their education, occupations, marriage and family relations, and attitudes and outlook. From a survey of 900 women, this publication finds evidence both of real differences over time and of the persistence of older patterns.
