Description

The Routledge Handbook of East Asian Gender Studies presents up-to-date theoretical and conceptual developments in key areas of the field, taking a multi-disciplinary and comparative approach.

Featuring contributions by leading scholars of Gender Studies to provide a cutting-edge overview of the field, this handbook includes examples from China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong and covers the following themes:

    • theorising gender relations;

    • women’s and feminist movements;

    • work, care and migration;

    • family and intergenerational relationships;

    • cultural representation;

    • masculinity; and

    • state, militarism and gender.

This handbook is essential reading for scholars and students of Gender and Women’s Studies, as well as East Asian societies, social policy and culture.
