One Woman, One Child : The Implications Of The One-Child-Family Policy For Chinese Women, Tao Shi
One Woman, One Child : The Implications Of The One-Child-Family Policy For Chinese Women, Tao Shi
Dissertations and Theses
Since few studies have explicitly focused on the impact of China's one-child-family policy on Chinese women, this thesis is designed to explore this aspect. The implication of the policy for both urban and rural women is studied, particularly its influence on women's fertility behavior, labor roles, and on social, health and family status. The focus of the study is to explore the changes of women's lives associated with the one-child-family policy, and advantages and disadvantages, even contradictions the policy has brought to women's lives.
