Masculine Modernity Trumps Feminine Tradition: Gendered Capacity-building Operation in China
This article analyzes the case of a capacity-building technology offered by two North American organizations to a non-governmental organization (NGO) in the People’s Republic of China. The analysis responds to calls for critical investigation of the practices of development agencies, and questions the roots of the so-called NGO-ization practices that aim to create modern and sustainable NGOs according to new public management paradigms. The two U…
Non-governmental Organizing in the People’s Republic of China – a Reading Inspired by Agential Realism
In this essay we show how various theories, not least Karen Barad’s theory of agential realism, have inspired us to a reading that opens up theorizing on non-governmental organizing in the People’s Republic of China. Drawing on Barad we define such organizing as a phenomenon that emerges through the ontologically inseparable intra-action between three entities that are conventionally viewed as separate

In this article, we propose a theoretical framework for understanding a type of organizing in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) which is often defined as “non-governmental.” We are inspired by critical feminist writings on the production of knowledge. We draw on geographer Doreen Massey’s conceptualization of space, physicist Karen Barad’s theory of agential realism and notion of “intra-action,” and grounded theorist Adele Clarke’s understandi…

Non-Governmental Organising for Gender Equality in China – Joining a Global Emancipatory Epistemic Community
This paper uses domestic violence activism as a case study through which to examine how non-governmental feminist activists organising in China have generated new knowledge through their engagement with international gender equality activism and global human rights norms. We examine how an epistemic community focused on domestic violence has developed in China. This community subscribes to international definitions of violence against women as a …
Activism Against Domestic Violence in the People's Republic of China
This article is concerned with nongovernmental or popular activism against domestic violence in the People's Republic of China. The article focuses on how three factors—first, the political context; second, 10 years of activist experience; and finally, international exchange—have influenced and formed activism from the early 1990s to the present. The article addresses the following questions: (a) How and why did activism against domestic violence…
