Neue Zeit, 24. November 1979, S. 12: Bei den Minangkabau regieren die Mütter
Neue Zeit, 24 Nov 1979, p. 12: Among the Minangkabau the mothers rule
Neue Zeit, 24 November 1979, p. 12 ('Rund um die Welt'): feature 'Bei den Minangkabau regieren die Mütter' on the matrilineal Minangkabau of West Sumatra (about three million people, around Bukittinggi). It describes matrilineal descent, women's ownership of house and land, men's role as outside representatives, and adat, and predicts a shift towards nuclear families in towns. A general ethnographic piece; no Gerwani, no political context, no named individuals.
