Description - A Path Toward Gender Equality: State Feminism in Japan by Yoshie Kobayashi

This dissertation is the first study of state feminism in a non-western nation state, focusing on the activities and roles of the Women's Bureau of the Ministry of Labor in post-World War II Japan. While the state feminism theory possesses a strong capability to examine state-society relationships in terms of feminist policy-making, it tends to neglect a state's activity in improving women's status and rights in non-western nations where the feminist movements are apathetic or antagonistic to the state and where the state also creates a vertical relationship with feminist groups.
