Abstract

Since modern times, the social status of Chinese women was relatively low, which gradually formed in the long history of ancient social changes. From the end of primitive society to the end of feudal society, the status of Chinese women has always been confined and marginalized in people’s minds. Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, women’s social status has been significantly improved, and they gradually got rid of the role of male’s vassals. With the change of social thought, women’s status has been recognized. In this context, by analyzing the evolution of women’s social status in modern China, the transformation of their status and its influence on modern society, this study carries out research from three aspects to describe the influence of women’s status in modern China on social economy in the social change.
