Asian Women from Different Perspectives

About the Book

With the entrance of women to different areas of academic, education, industry and even military forces, their status has changed in the society. That is why along with their maternal and motherhood roles, they have faced with social roles as well. These changes have persuaded scholars to start investigation over women’s problem with scientific outlook by avoiding bias observation. They have examined difficulties of women’s life through theoretical framework and prevent their move towards emancipation based on temporary belief. This book is the collection of eleven articles which have investigated Asian women’s status from different perspectives in literature, sociology and Geography.
