Presenting the collaborative work of 13 international specialists
of contemporary Chinese culture and society, this book explores the
spaces of creation, production, and diffusion of "youth cultures"
in China among generations born since the 1980s. Defining the
concept of "youth culture" as practices and activities that
catalyze self-expression and creativity, this book investigates the
emergence of new physical spaces, including large avenues, parks,
shopping malls, and recreation areas. Building on this, it also
examines the influence of non-physical places, especially digital
cultures, such as online social networks, shopping platforms,
Cosplay, cyberliterature, and digital calligraphy and argues that
these may in fact play a more significant role in Chinese civil
society today. As an exploration of how youth can be creative even
in a coercive environment, China's Youth Cultures and Collective
Spaces will be valuable to students and scholars of Chinese
society, as well those working on the links between space, youth,
and culture.
