This book examines how gender and generational relations have been
influenced by the vast changes in the Chinese society since the
start of the Reform era in 1978. It offers a short introduction to
China's recent development and the relationship between Chinese and
Nordic gender research. Three articles in the book focus on how the
developments in the Reform era have produced generational changes
in feminist politics, in the labour market, and between young
people and their parents – and what impacts these changes have
for gender relations. Two articles investigate changes in
middle-class motherhoods and fatherhoods towards more emphasis on
intimacy and love between parents and child, but often in
asynchronicity with traditional gender roles among the parents. In
addition, the book comprises a review of a recent volume about
transforming Chinese patriarchy, and an essay reflecting on what
the implications for Nordic/Western gender studies of China’s
increasing presence and influence globally as well as in the Nordic
region could or should be. This book is a significant new
contribution to gender studies and politics, and will be a great
resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of
Literature, History, Sociology, Politics, and Gender. The chapters
in this book were originally published as a special issue of
NORA—Nordic Journal of Feminist and Gender Research.
