| 520 | |a "This book challenges the direct responsibility of Japan's affluent society for the impoverishment of Asian women's lives ... Drawing on her recent assignments in seventeen Asian countries, Yayori Matsui shows the daily challenges faced by women from many different classes and cultures. She witnesses to the abuses of child prostitution and the expanding sex industry in Thailand and the Philippines, and rape and dowry deaths of Indian brides, the exploitation and loneliness of women migrant workers, and the impact of Japanese-style management. At the same time, she provides a powerful and optimistic portrait of a very different reality--Burmese women confident in the vitality of their matriarchal tradition, Filipinas undaunted when facing down the Marcos dictatorship, and Korean mothers demanding democracy ... This remarkable piece of investigative journalism shows Asian women in all their diversity, desperation and courage"--Publisher. | ||
