To Have and to Hold: Gender Regimes and Property Rights in Twentieth Century Romania
The meaning of citizenship has changed profoundly over the twentieth century, with women experiencing the most radical shifts in how their rights and duties have been defined and protected by the state. Visiting Scholar Maria Bucur follows the changes that have affected women in Romania in the area of property rights. Over a century of conflict and societal transformation, women have gradually gained more rights as citizens, but full equality with men has not been achieved.
