By investigating the Southern Weekly Incident, in which censorship
of the prominent Chinese newspaper Southern Weekly triggered mass
online contention in Chinese society, Resistance in Digital China
examines how Chinese people engage in resistance on digital
networks whilst cautiously safeguarding their life under
authoritarian rule. Chen's in-depth analysis of the Southern Weekly
Incident ties together overlapping debates in internet studies,
Chinese studies, social movement studies, political communication,
and cultural studies to discuss issues of civic connectivity,
emotions, embodiment, and the construction of a public sphere in
digital China. Resistance in Digital China demonstrates a valuable
methodology for conducting in-depth empirical examination of an act
of resistance in order to explore political, cultural, and
sociological meanings of Chinese people's resistance within party
limits. Fruitfully combining 45 interviews with key players in the
Southern Weekly Incident with largely Western-based communications
theory, Chen develops an understanding of the ongoing formation of
the Chinese public sphere as elite-led and emotional, at once
invoked and rejected by Chinese citizens.
