The Internet and digital media have become conduits and locales
where millions of Chinese share information and engage in creative
expression and social participation. This book takes a cutting-edge
look at the impacts and implications of an increasingly networked
China. Eleven chapters cover the terrain of a complex social and
political environment, revealing how modern China deals with
digital media and issues of censorship, online activism, civic
life, and global networks. The authors in this collection come from
diverse geographical backgrounds and employ methods including
ethnography, interview, survey, and digital trace data to reveal
the networks that provide the critical components for civic
engagement in Chinese society. The Chinese state is a changing,
multi-faceted entity, as is the Chinese public that interacts with
the new landscape of digital media in adaptive and novel ways.
Networked China: Global Dynamics of Digital Media and Civic
Engagement situates Chinese internet in its complex, generational
context to provide a full and dynamic understanding of contemporary
digital media use in China. This volume gives readers new agendas
for this study and creates vital new signposts on the way for
future research. .
