This book presents the results of Heide Goettner-Abendroth's
pioneering research in the field of modern matriarchal studies,
based on a new definition of "matriarchy" as true
gender-egalitarian societies. Accordingly, matriarchal societies
should not be regarded as mirror images of patriarchal ones, as
they have never needed patriarchy's hierarchical structures of
domination. On the contrary, matriarchal patterns are socially
egalitarian, economically balanced, and politically based on
consensus decisions. They have been created by women and are
founded on maternal values. This new perspective on matriarchal
societies is developed step by step by the analysis of extant
indigenous cultures in Asia, Africa, and the Americas.
