This book was released on 2012 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fertility Behaviour of Rural Women in Pakistan illustrates an anthropological perspective of all social and cultural factors which affect the ideas, attitudes and beliefs of rural women that underpin their fertility behaviour and eventually the process of fertility decline. The principal objective of the research was to explore the relationship between social norms, individual beliefs and fertility. The main argument, which emerged from this study, is that the large family has immense social and cultural significance for variety of reasons related to status, prestige, income and security. This study also highlighted this fact that women subjugated position does not really allow them to effectively participate in the decision making process with regards to fertility regulation because of the social constraints and culturally or traditionally defined norms. Thus, the fertility of a woman is not actually controlled by her; rather the social environment in which she lives.

This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides insights into the prevailing patriarchal system in rural Pakistan. It elaborates on the kinship system in rural Sindh and explores how young married women strategize and negotiate with patriarchy. Drawing on qualitative methodologies, the book reveals the strong relationship between poverty and the perpetuation of patriarchy. Women’s strategies help elevate their position in their families, such as attention to household tasks, producing children, and doing handicraft work for their well-being. These conditions are usually seen as evidence of women’s subordination, but these are also strategies for survival where accommodation to patriarchy wins them approval. The book concludes that women’s life-long struggle is, in fact, a technique of negotiating with patriarchy. In so doing, they internalize the culture that rests on their subordination and reproduce it in older age in exercising power by oppressing other junior women.
