| Description | This research studies the women's movement and changes in women's status in China. The first part of the paper reviews the history of the women's movement in China and relevant theoretical perspectives on gender stratification. The second part examines empirical and secondary data to demonstrate the transformations of women's status in China. The final section examines some conclusions emerging from the data. The findings show that the change of women's status, measured in terms of income, occupation and education, over the last fifty years has been unstable and inconsistent. Although China has been tremendously successful in achieving gender equality, women still suffer a lower status compared with men. |
