Higher Education Policy and the Changing Gender Dynamics of American Citizenship

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

What explains the progress that American women have made since the 1960s? While many point to the feminist movement, this book argues that higher education policies paved the way for women to surpass men as the recipients of bachelor's degrees and helped them move toward full, first-class citizenship.
