Abstract

Restructuring patriarchy : the modernization of gender inequality in Brazil, 1914-1940

"Falling comfortably between women's history and political history, book examines changing gender ideologies. Focusing primarily on urban upper classes, author studies changing interactions between women and men in the family, schools, labor market, professions, polity, and culture"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57. http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
