This volume will look into some macro factors that have an impact
on gender conceptualizations in China. First, China is a
highly-centralized state with a one-party political system that is
also an authoritarian strongman regime. Thus, policies (including
those related to gender) from the center are promulgated
centripetally to provinces, cities, towns, villages, and local
areas effectively.In terms of policy-making, the Chinese government
noted that they have strengthened the Chinese Communist Party's
(CCP) guide for women's work, enacted/upgraded rights protection
law in the National People's Congress (NPC), actualized mechanisms
for women's cause in the Chinese People's Political Conservative
Conference (CPPCC), streamlined work systems for effective
implementation of national gender equality policies, and augmented
the Women's Federation as an intermediary between the Communist
Party of China (CPC), the state, and all Chinese women.As
productive forces, Chinese women in the socialist era were
exemplary models of mothers and career women who treated family
life and work as equally important priorities. They were upper
middle class to high net worth individuals who showed their
successes in juggling both as objects of moral suasion for other
Chinese women in state-led publicity. Some of them were touted by
the state as ideal modern Chinese women in state media, moral
suasion campaigns, and/or propaganda.
