Opting Out

Women Messing with Marriage Around the World

Herausgeber: Davidson, Joanna; Hannaford, Dinah

Beschreibung

Opting Out offers sensitive and powerful ethnographic portrayals of women in Africa, Asia, and Latin America who are quietly opting out of marriage. Across these diverse geographic contexts,this edited volume shows that women are the (often unwitting, mostly unacknowledged) protagonists of profound changes in marriage, gender, and kinship. Ã
