Description: Masquerade : Feminist Rights and Queer Media in China, Paperback by Tan, Jia, ISBN 147981184X, ISBN-13 9781479811847, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Charts a new wave of feminist and queer media activism in post-millennial China Masquerade offers a trenchant and singular analysis of the convergence of media, feminist and queer culture, and rights consciousness in China. Jia Tan examines the formation of what she calls “rights feminism,” or the emergence of rights consciousness in Chinese feminist formations, as well as queer activism and rights advocacy. Expanding on feminist and queer theory of masquerade, she develops the notion of “ masquerade” to theorize the co-constitutive role of technology as assemblage and entanglement in the articulation of feminism, queerness, and rights. Drawing from interviews with various feminist and queer media practitioners, participant observation at community events, and detailed analyses of a variety of media forms such as social media, electronic journals, filmmaking, film festivals, and dating app videos, Jia Tan captures the feminist, queer, and rights articulations that are simultaneously disruptive of and conditioned by state censorship, technological affordances, and dominant social norms.
