Biography

School of International and Public Affairs

Professor Myron Cohen''s  major research interest is Chinese society and the changes it has undergone from the 17th century to the present. I have carried out fieldwork and other research in Taiwan and in northern, eastern, and western mainland China. One field research focus has been on the family, and I have been concerned to determine variations and uniformities in traditional family organization and in the patterns of change during modern times. My most recent work is on the historical anthropology of the community in south Taiwan where I carried out earlier research.
