Description

Explore the changing lives of urban Chinese daughters in this academic study from the St Antony's Series. As education and employment drive women toward self-sufficiency, their roles within the family are undergoing a major shift. This book examines the tension between new lifestyles and traditional filial obligation. Through detailed interviews with women in Hong Kong, Singapore, and mainland China, the text investigates how daughters manage their relationships with parents. It looks at the emotional work required to navigate conflict and maintain self-esteem while meeting cultural expectations. This study provides a deep look into whether structural or relational motivations drive these modern family dynamics in a transitioning culture.

Key Features

Analyzes how traditional filial obligation persists despite modern changes in lifestyle and social status.

Includes primary research based on interviews with women living in Hong Kong, Singapore, and mainland China.

Investigates the emotional work daughters perform to sustain parent relationships and manage family conflict.

Explores the motivations behind daughter-parent relationships in a transitioning cultural landscape.
