Abstract

The China field has maintained a consistent focus on the changing status of women in society. The focus falls into two perspectives: either a hypercritical analysis of some facet of reform era changes that have diminished women's domestic or public status or, a qualified analysis of gender discrimination which as examines how a specific population is redefining social conventions in favor of a more individualistic life-orientation centered in female autonomy and personal achievement.
