Charts a new wave of feminist and queer media activism in
post-millennial China Digital Masquerade offers a trenchant and
singular analysis of the convergence of digital 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 "digital
masquerade" to theorize the co-constitutive role of digital
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, digital
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.
