dc.description.abstractThe rural areas of the Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey have been transformed from a subsistence agricultural economy to one based on commercial agriculture as a result of mechanization, neo-liberalism, and expansion of the irrigation system. Because of these agricultural transformations, many rural residents who do not own their own land have become dependent on seasonal agricultural work and, entire families move to work in what are now specialist agricultural areas during the busy periods in the farming seasons. As seasonal agricultural work became the main economic activity for these families, the women have increasingly taken on the burden of agricultural work in addition to their domestic duties. This change in the economic role of these women has produced very little change in their social, cultural, and economic status since, in the rural areas of Şanlıurfa Province where this study was undertaken, a patriarchal tradition is still dominant. © 2022 selection and editorial matter, Holly Barcus, Roy Jones and Serge Schmitz; individual chapters, the contributors.
