Gender and Society: Understanding the Gender Dimensions of Philippine Culture and Society presents critical insights about socioeconomic and gender-related issues encountered and dealt with by Filipino women from the past up to the present. The book offers a wide spectrum of studies presented as essays that explore the narratives and experiences of Filipino women across diverse locations, cultural groups, and political affiliations. These texts shed light on the status of women across various socioeconomic backgrounds and gender identities, highlighting their struggles as they navigate life’s challenges, as well as their personal and collective political resistance and advocacy efforts.
