Eventually though it lost impetus with sloganization and stigmatization under a trio of forces of pressures: corporate corruption, over-politicization by Western media, and continued state censorship. The book documents the social events and gendered norms in higher education, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), business, and religious circles that preceded and followed high-profile cases of alleged sexual abuses in mainland China, engaging with sociological scholarship relating to demoralization and power, media studies, and gender studies. Through these entwined theories the author seeks to give both scholars and the general audience in gender studies a window into the ongoing tension in the power spheres of state, market, and gendered hierarchy in contemporary Chinese society. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to students of gender studies, China studies, media studies, and cultural studies\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Li Ma\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 103205493X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032054933\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/16\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.50d","brand":"Li Ma","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43982049935615,"sku":"9781032054933","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_44232b92-ceb7-4a71-ba57-d67094b875a0.jpg?v=1683258980","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/metoo-and-cyber-activism-in-li-ma-9781032054933","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
