Mao
Mao: A Very Short Introduction chronicles Mao's journey from peasant child to ruler of China. He was a founder of both the Chinese Communist Party and the Red Army. His revolution unified China and began its rise to world power status. He was the architect of the Great Leap Forward that he hoped would make China both prosperous and egalitarian, but instead ended in economic disaster resulting in millions of deaths. It was Mao's growing suspicion …
Cultivating Global Citizens
Gendered Mao
The young Mao was a champion of women's rights. In early published essays, he attacked the arranged-marriage system and the way women were treated in the family. Later, in his reports on rural areas, he consistently gave attention to women's issues. The revolution that he led accepted the equality of the sexes as a major objective.

Marriage Migration in China and East Asia
This paper explores the connections between the shortage of women in China that is making it more difficult for men to find brides and the growing phenomenon of long distance marriage migration.

The movement satisfies demand from men too poor or disadvantaged to afford a bride from their local community. Women undertake marriage migration in the hope …
China's Minorities on the Move
Marriage Migration in China
This article shows that marriage migration is an important form of migration for women in contemporary China, accounting for between a quarter and a third of all female migration, and for over half the female migration from the poorer provinces. Uneven development and greatly improved communications have both contributed to the development of marriage migration as a significant phenomenon in post-reform China. Sometimes women themselves use marri…
Women and Migration in Contemporary China
This paper shows that the huge numbers of rural migrants who have left the Chinese countryside in recent years to go to work in the newly industrialising coastal areas have included a substantial minority of women. It discusses the gender-specific aspects of migration and the occupations taken up by female migrants. It also considers issues such as female autonomy, fertility and prostitution in relation to migration. It contends that since the st…

As China moves from a society controlling all aspects of life, including population movement, to something nearer a market economy, migration has become a live issue. Tens of millions of rural migrant
Gender and rural-urban migration in China
Migration by both men and women in search of better economic opportunities is currently taking place on a massive scale in China.

This article considers the effect this 'circular migration' is having on gender relations within Chinese society
