Chinese Visions of Family and State, 1915-1953 - Asia: Local Studies / Global Themes
Susan L. Glosser
Examines how the link between family order and national salvation in China affected state-building and explores its consequences. This book argues that the replacement of the authoritarian, patriarchal, extended family structure with an egalitarian, conjugal family was a way for the nation to preserve crucial elements of its traditional culture.
