While state feminism theory possesses a strong capability to examine state-society relationships in terms of feminist policymaking, 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. 410 0$aEast Asia (New York, N.Y.) 606 $aWomen's rights$zJapan 606 $aWomen$xGovernment policy$zJapan 606 $aWomen$xEmployment$xLaw and legislation$zJapan 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWomen's rights 615 0$aWomen$xGovernment policy 615 0$aWomen$xEmployment$xLaw and legislation 676 $a305.42/0952 700 $aKobayashi$b Yoshie$f1955,$0950643 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450209403321 996 $aA path toward gender equality$92149322 997 $aUNINA
