It provides the reader with academic evidence for understanding the mechanism of female labor force participation, the determinants of the gender gap in the labor market, and the impact of policy transformation on women?s wages and employment in China from an economics perspective. The main content of this book includes three parts?women?s family responsibilities and women?s labor supply (child care, parent care, and women?s employment), the gender gap in the labor market and society (gender gaps in wages, Communist Party membership, and participation in social activity), and the impacts of policy transformation on women?s wages and employment (the social security system and the educational expansion policy on women?s wages and employment) in China. This book provides academic evidence about these issues based on economics theories and econometric analysis methods using many kinds of long-term Chinese national survey data. This book is highly recommended to readers who are interested in up-to-date and in-depth empirical studies of the gender gap and women?s employment in China during the economic transition period. This book is of interest to various groups such as readers who are interested in the Chinese economy, policymakers, and scholars with econometric analysis backgrounds. 410 0$aHitotsubashi University IER Economic Research Series,$x2524-5147 ;$v47 606 $aLabor economics 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aWomen$xHistory 606 $aSex 606 $aDemography 606 $aPopulation 606 $aLabor Economics 606 $aComparative Social Policy 606 $aWomen's History / History of Gender 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aPopulation and Demography 615 0$aLabor economics. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aWomen$xHistory. 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aDemography. 615 0$aPopulation. 615 14$aLabor Economics. 615 24$aComparative Social Policy. 615 24$aWomen's History / History of Gender. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aPopulation and Demography. 676 $a331 700 $aMa$b Xinxin$0853161 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476877703321 996 $aFemale Employment and Gender Gaps in China$92259017 997 $aUNINA
