What If You Had a Revolution and No One Came? Isolation, Intersubjectivity, and Agency in China's 2011 Jasmine Revolution
Why did people join China's doomed Jasmine Revolution in 2011? And why, considering the deep motivation required to join, did they eventually stop? This ethnographic study, based on 4 months of observation of protest sites and discussions with participants, moves beyond previous research on the revolution's macropolitical failure by engaging with the micropolitical motivations of participants. The meaning of this seemingly meaningless revolution …
The crisis of China research in an age of genocide
Since 2017, it has become increasingly undeniable that crimes against humanity are occurring in the area now known as the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. This article examines the particular ethical dilemmas posed to China-focused academics by these events. A generation of researchers who began their careers engaging with a “rising power” now face a state openly engaged in genocide. Academics who have come to see their jobs as “understanding” …
National identity deconstruction
What is Chinese nationalism? Is nationalism the most effective framework for understanding how people in China are making sense of the world today? These are among the questions raised by Allen Carlson in his 2009 article ‘A flawed perspective: the limitations inherent within the study of Chinese nationalism’, which developed a provocative critique of decades of scholarship. Acknowledging the insights of Carlton's questions while disagreeing with…
Seeing Sansha
On 24 July 2012, the Sansha People’s Government was established on an anthropogenic island in the South China Sea, more than 350 kilometers from the southernmost point of Hainan Province. Sansha is the PRC’s smallest city, occupying roughly ten square kilometers on Woody Island and housing a population of just over a thousand; at the same time, it is also the PRC’s largest city, symbolically laying claim to thousands of kilometers of space in the…
Great Han
The Great Han: Race, Nationalism, and Tradition in China Today is an ethnographic study of China’s Han Clothing Movement, a racial nationalist and neo-traditionalist group that has emerged in cities across China since 2001. The movement’s stated mission is promoting a purportedly ancient style of ethnic clothing for the Han race, to revitalize tradition and thus revitalize the Han and its nation, China. The first half of the book examines the mov…
Eliminating Spiritual Pollution
Most histories have analyzed China’s 1983 Campaign to Eliminate Spiritual Pollution through the lens of elite politics. This article proposes a new interpretation of “spiritual pollution,” drawing upon anthropological theories of taboo and pollution to reinterpret the campaign’s role in reform-era culture and identity construction. The early reform era was a time of collapsing social borders that erased the obsessively delineated identities of th…
Tibet on fire
In the five years since February 2009, over 100 Tibetan monks have self-immolated in protest of the Chinese occupation in their lands. Most have died from their wounds. If Tibetans saw even a sliver of an opportunity to hold demonstrations, then they would not resort to self-immolation, Woeser, the dissident Tibetan poet, has written in The New York Times. The Tibetans she references includes herself: a prominent voice of the Tibetan movement, an…

The pedagogy of controversy in the field of China Studies
How can we as educators address complex and controversial topics in the social sciences without encouraging simplistic responses and self-reproducing binary oppositions? Drawing upon an ethnographic analysis of a first-year writing seminar on the history of the Chinese Cultural Revolution, this article proposes novel approaches to overcome instinctive reactions to contentious topics. Arguing that the experience of controversy produces self-reinfo…
