Description
In 1971 Marilyn Strathern provided what has now become a classic ethnographic text, Women In Between.
Significantly, this pioneering contribution to feminist anthropology focuses on gender relations rather than on women alone.
Re-issued now, Women in Between examines the attitudes of the Hagen people and analyzes the power of women in their male-dominated system.
Strathern cites case studies of marriage arrangements, divorce, and traditional settlement disputes to illustrate women's status in Hagen society.
