Digital Resonance as Youth Resistance
In response to intense structural pressures, youth in contemporary China increasingly articulate mental distress online, transmuting individual grievances into collective cultural and political resistance. This study asks how young people appropriate the architecture of Zhihu, a major Chinese knowledge-sharing platform, to accomplish this transformation. Drawing on Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory, we introduce “digital resonance” as an…
Subsidy Phase-Out and Consumer Demand Dynamics
This article quantifies the impact of the battery electric vehicle subsidy program in China. We build a structural model of dynamic demand and Bertrand Nash supply to study price elasticity and changes in production costs. The model highlights four channels through which the subsidy program impacts the market: temporal elasticity, in response to a current price change; intertemporal elasticity, in response to a future price change; and multiplica…
On the edge of love and pain
In recent decades, online literature has emerged as a significant component of China’s cultural and creative industries, with women playing an increasingly critical role as writers. Despite their substantial contributions, women’s online literature production has received limited scholarly attention. This study adopts a gendered perspective to analyse the emotional and affective labour involved in women’s online literature production in China. By…
Television, women, and self-objectification
In China, a newly arising genre of TV dramas known as “female TV drama” has become very popular among female audiences and brought about great changes to the television industry in recent years. Under the framework of objectification theory, this study examines the relationship between the consumption of female TV dramas and sexism, the internalization of beauty ideals, and body surveillance among female audiences in China. Drawing on data collec…
Why do women write? Exploring women's empowerment through online literature creation in China
As a crucial part of the booming Chinese cultural creative industries, online literature has stood out for its great economic benefit and broad social influence in recent decades. The prospering of online literature in China owes a great deal to the rise of Chinese women as writers in this huge industrial chain. This study explores the initiatives and implications of women's online literature creation in China under the framework of women's empow…
Douyin, storytelling, and national discourse
Following its debut in China, TikTok has become the first short video platform to gain global popularity. The world’s obsession with TikTok can be attributed to its creative methods for content generation and dissemination. These attributes heralded the arrival of a new era in which, with the rise of grassroots creators on short video platforms, cultural production and consumption have been profoundly changed. Through examining Douyin (the Chines…
Localized Implementation
China's overcapacities in manufacturing industries, including pollution-intensive industries, served as an important motivation of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The popular Pollution Haven Hypothesis (PHH) therefore expects that the initiative will lead to the relocation of polluting industries from China to the recipients. Focusing on the implementation by local governments, we argue that actual outcomes of the BRI depend on the way local …
