Description

Son Preference explores the complex phenomenon of male child preference across South Asian societies, examining how cultural values, economic factors, and modern technologies shape gender-based outcomes. This Routledge publication brings together key academic debates on son preference by synthesising existing research and presenting new insights from primary investigation. The book spans multiple social science disciplines to analyse son preference as both a historical pattern and a contemporary issue with significant local and global implications. It investigates how gender preferences emerge from and reinforce broader power relations within families and communities, whilst considering the intersection of culture, economy, and technology in perpetuating these patterns. Essential reading for scholars, policymakers, and students seeking to understand the causes and consequences of son preference in South Asia.
