Women in anthropology: Their contributions and stand in developing the discipline
Human history has seen a long era of patriarchal domination. Women have struggled for long to get equal rights in the society. Decades of conflicts and struggle for equality finally started showing good results at the beginning of 20th century. Anthropology was just born as new revolutionary subject almost two centuries back. As this subject was one of a kind, it attracted academicians around the world.
