#1: Title: Changing Experiences of Chinese Women in an Era of Modernization
Yi Sun
Assistant Professor Department of History University of San Diego November 15, 2001 4:00 pm Storm Hall 106 Free and open to the public. All are welcome.
Professor Yi Sun from USD gives an explanation for the high
incidences of female suicide rate in China. She argues that the high
suicide rate grows out of a "cultural clash" generated by
distinctive
emancipation of women's status under communism and continued traditional
pressures planced on women as "domestic" wives. An interesting point
she
makes is that the enlargement of "private" space in China has
deprived
women of traditional public support and left women to fend for themselves
in their private domain.
