description: Maps out the social and cultural changes that accompanied the radical political and economic changes that engulfed the country during the century. Among them are shifts from minority to mass literacy, from rule by a tiny elite to at least glimmers of democracy, and from women's exclusion from the public sphere to the age of the New Women and a return to the labor market in vastly different circumstances.
