It questions the meaning of democratization for women and their relationship to national sovereignty within the new Indonesian state, and discusses women's organizations and their activities; women's social and economic roles; and the different cultural, regional and ethnic attitudes towards women, while showing the failure of political change to fully address women's gender interests and needs. The author argues that both the role of nationalism in defining gender identity and the role of gender in defining national identity need equal recognition.ASAA women in Asia series.WomenIndonesiaHistory20th centuryFeminismIndonesiaHistory20th centuryElectronic books.WomenHistoryFeminismHistory305.4/0959815.75bclMartyn Elizabeth925888FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910450990503321The Women's Movement in Postcolonial Indonesia2078842UNINA
