Norman MacKenzie chronicles the position of women across key domains of public and private life, from employment and education to marriage and political participation, drawing on substantial research to construct a detailed and nuanced sociological argument.\n\nMacKenzie writes with the measured authority of a committed social scientist, grounding his analysis in empirical data while never losing sight of the human realities behind the statistics. The work sits within a broader mid-twentieth-century tradition of progressive social inquiry, and remains a significant document for anyone seeking to understand the historical foundations of gender equality debates in Australia. For readers of social history, feminist theory, or Australian cultural studies, this volume raises questions about progress and institutional power that have lost none of their urgency.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49161012609243,"sku":"2026200014127-SECONDHAND","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1dcd3941-ac97-455a-8780-f1d874d7f7de.png?v=1787188995","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014127-secondhand-women-in-australia","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
