In the process of helping women to help themselves, female
activists have assumed a decisive role in negotiating social and
political transformations in Chinese society. This is the first
book that describes and analyzes the new phase of women's
organizing in China, which started in the 1980s, and remains a
vital force to the present day. The political and social changes
taking place in contemporary Chinese society have, surprisingly,
received scant attention. This volume enriches our understanding of
the working of grassroots democracy in China by exploring women's
popular organizing activities and their interaction with
party-state institutions. By subjecting these activities to both
empirical enquiry and theoretical scrutiny, a rigorous analysis of
the exchange, dialogue, negotiation and transformation among and
within three groups of political actors - popular women's groups,
religious groups and the All China Women's Federation - is
concisely presented to the reader.
This book will be of tremendous interest to students of Chinese
Studies, Political Science and Gender Studies alike.
