女性参政,一直为中国古代社会统治者所禁忌。有辽一代,女性却广泛参与到政治生活中。其根本原因是契丹游牧为主的生产方式,使女性有着几乎同男性平等的社会地位。此外,契丹族尊母孝母的文化传统和民风民俗,以及契丹女性自身优秀的政治素养也是重要原因。 Women’s political participation has been taboo for the rulers of ancient Chinese society. Liao generation, women are widely involved in political life. The fundamental reason is that Khitan nomadic-based production methods, so that women have almost equal social status with men. In addition, the cultural traditions and folk customs of the Khitan mother-daughter mother and elder mother and the outstanding political accomplishments of Khitan women are also important reasons.
