"This book focusses on the #MeToo movement in China, critically examining how three competing ideologies have worked in co-opting #MeToo activism: China's official communism, Western neoliberalism, and an emerging Chinese cyber-feminism. In 2018, China's #MeToo cyber activism initially maintained its momentum despite strict censorship, presenting women's voices against gendered violence and revealing scripts of power in different sectors of society. Eventually though it lost impetus with sloganization and stigmatization under a trio forces of pressures: corporate corruption, over-politicization by Western media and continued state censorship. The book documents the social events and gendered norms in higher education, NGOs, business and religious circles that preceded and followed high-profile cases of alleged sexual abuses in mainland China, engaging with sociological scholarship relating to demoralization and power, media studies and gender studies. Through these entwined theories the author seeks to give both scholars and the general audience in gender studies a window into the ongoing tension in the power spheres of state, market and gendered hierarchy in contemporary Chinese society. This book will be of interest to students of gender studies, China studies, media studies, and cultural Studies"--

Women make up the vast majority of Protestant Christians in China—a largely faceless majority, as their stories too often go untold in scholarly research as well as popular media. This book writes Protestant Chinese women into the history of twenty-first-century China. It features the oral histories of over a dozen women, highlighting themes of spiritual transformation, politicized culture, social mobility, urbanization, and family life. Each subject narrates not only her own story, but that of her mother, as well, revealing a deeply personal dimension to the dramatic social change that has occurred in a matter of decades. By uncovering the stories of Christian women in China, Li Ma offers a unique window onto the interactions between femininity and Christianity, and onto the socioeconomic upheavals that mark recent Chinese history. --

Cet article analyse la relation entre l'emploi des femmes et l'entrée en maternité dans le contexte socio-économique et institutionnel de la Corée du Sud, à partir des données des vagues 1 à 10 du Korea Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) recueillies entre 1998 et 2007. L'étude retrace les comportements de fécondité et d'emploi depuis 1978 en ayant recours à la méthode de l'analyse biographique. L'entrée en maternité se caractérise par une tendance à la baisse, surtout à partir des années 1990. Elle est notamment liée au report et à la diminution des mariages. Les femmes qui quittent leur emploi sont davantage susceptibles de devenir mères que celles qui restent actives ou n'ont pas eu d'expérience professionnelle. Le fait de sortir du marché du travail est souvent le signe de constitution de la famille, mais ce phénomène est remis en cause dans les dernières années. Désormais, rester en activité jusqu'à la grossesse et pendant celle-ci est plus fréquent. Les salariées du secteur public sont davantage susceptibles que les autres de devenir mères, soulignant ainsi l'importance de la stabilité de l'emploi pour l'entrée en maternité en Corée. Le comportement de fécondité des salariées du secteur privé paraît plus sensible aux bouleversements des cycles économiques.

More than one and a half decades have elapsed since the Zhangjiashan archaeological findings showed excitingly that a new collection of mathematical texts on bamboo strips were excavated, dating earlier than the then earliest known and most influential Chinese mathematical classic Jiu Zhang Suan Shu. Now that the contents of the findings have finally been made available to the world outside of the group of archaeologists involved, should the history of Chinese mathematics be rewritten? After comparing the new material with the Jiu Zhang Suan Shu I believe that the place of the Jiu Zhang Suan Shu remains an irreplaceable cornerstone in the history of Chinese mathematics; however, the Jiu Zhang Suan Shu can no longer be seen as the earliest sources for the mathematical knowledge therein.
