Culture Revolution Posters

The cultura revolution promised a great deal in terms of changing gender norms, and i think delivered atively little. The number of women in lower level party cardre positions seems to have increased quite significantly but then went down again from the 19 eighties onwards. And even during the culture revolution, it's worth noting that when we talk about the top leadership, the only prominent female participant is the one who happens to be married to the chairman as well. So again, that's not a great recipe for greater gender equality, i think.
