4. Patriarchy and Capitalism

Douban rating: 9.2

Chizuko Ueno, a leading Japanese sociologist, feminist critic and public intellectual, has been a pioneer in women's studies and the author of many books, including Patriarchy and Capitalism. First published in 1990, the book dives deep into the historical complications leading to the inferior condition of women.

Although the book deals with the status of women in Japan, its views apply, to a large extent, to the current situation in China. Therefore, it is of great inspiration to anyone thinking about the status of women and gender equality.
