A Kazak man stands in front of his yurt. The traditional Kazak marriage and family is strongly patriarchal and feudal. The male patriarch enjoyed absolute authority at home; the wife was subordinate to the husband, and the children to the father. The women had no right to property. The marriage of the children and the distribution of property were all decided by the patriarch. [Photo by Liu Jing/chinadaily.com.cn] |
