Beyond Neo-Colonialism? Chinese Official Documentary Representations of South–South Cooperation and the Reproduction of Developmental Hierarchies
China’s expanding engagement with the Global South, particularly Africa, through the Belt and Road Initiative has been widely critiqued as a form of neo-colonialism in Western-dominated discourse. In response, Chinese official documentaries emerged as key instruments for constructing alternative narratives that challenge these accusations. This study critically examines China: Prescription for Poverty (2021), a documentary produced by China’s off…
What counts as knowledge in platform societies? Evidence from affective epistemic mobilities on rednote
What counts as knowledge in platform societies, and how does it circulate through affective and algorithmic infrastructures? This paper addresses these questions by examining Rednote (Xiaohongshu), a Chinese social media platform increasingly used as a de facto search engine among young users. Drawing on Don Ihde’s philosophy of human-technology relations and based on 32 semi-structured interviews and platform walkthroughs, we show how Rednote fo…
Cultural and economic dynamics of digital immersive art in China’s creative industries

Unlike the colonial image of Dunhuang in Chinese public discourse, the mini-programme does not focus on Dunhuang's history; rather, it provides a dyna…
