Zusammenfassung:It was once popular for Western scholars to view the liberation of women as one of the most dramatic accomplishments of the Chinese revolution. E. Honig reviews 3 books ('Women, the family, and peasant revolution in China' by Kay Ann Johnson; 'Patriarchy and socialist revolution in China' by Judith Stacey and 'The unfinished liberation of Chinese women' by Phyllis Andors) that present a more pessimistic view of the impact of the policies adopted by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) on women's lives. Throughout its history (with the possible exception of the 1920s) the CCP has failed to commit itself to the achievement of gender equality. (DÜI-Sen)
