Description: This volume examines the nature of married women's participation in the economies of three East Asian countries--Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. In addition to asking what is similar or different about women's economic participation in this region of the world compared to Western societies, the book also asks how women's work patterns vary across the three countries.
Review Quotes: "[Women's Working Lives in East Asia] provides much needed description and analyses around. . . . [themes] which have not previously been discusses in English-language scholarship."--Canadian Journal of Sociology Online
