During Women’s History Month, ARNCTA will offer a 3-part hybrid series on Women in Modern China. As political leaders, fashion icons, and subjects of spirited debate, women have been at the forefront of China’s modern transformation from a crumbling empire to a global economic superpower. Join celebrated Asian Studies scholars from around the world to explore this rich history and access engaging themes and resources to diversify your classroom. Topics include: the role of women in Confucian society (March 7); Shanghai Women in the Global Roaring Twenties (March 14); and the history and lasting effects of China’s One Child Policy (March 28). Come to a single event, or attend all three to receive a free package of books and curriculum materials.
