  • The Arts of Making Do and Working out in Beijing, China
    What are friends for?: The arts of making do and working out in Beijing, China Michelle Yang Zhang Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2020 Michelle Yang Zhang All Rights Reserved Abstract What are friends for?: The arts of making do and working out in Beijing, China Michelle Yang Zhang Through a second look at the now twenty-five-year-old literature on guanxi, a form of reciprocal relationship making and using in China, I examine how the kinds of opportunities and challenges possible for young people intersect with who they know and how this has changed (with its own set of reflections on and consequences for a still-rapidly changing China) since China’s rural to urban transition. My dissertation project examines how young people in contemporary urban China form and produce guanxi ties (resource-full relationships) through the theoretical lens of practice and possibility, inspired by de Certeau’s conceptualization of practice, productive consumption, and strategies versus tactics (1984). Drawing on qualitative data gathered through participant observation and unstructured interviews, I sought to both describe and analyze when, where, and how social networks became consequential. Central to my methodology is an emphasis on people and their practices rather than the common sense categories used to describe them. The people in my field research were predominantly aged 18- 30 and came from a range of ethnic, professional, and education backgrounds. In so doing, I was able to examine the moments and contexts within which some people have opportunities and others do not, as well as when some are vulnerable while others are less so.

  • Rooftops in Hong Kong Cinema
    JCC 7 (2) pp. 139–155 Intellect Limited 2013 Journal of Chinese Cinemas Volume 7 Number 2 © 2013 Intellect Ltd Article. English language. doi: 10.1386/jcc.7.2.139_1 Yiu Fai Chow Hong Kong Baptist University Jeroen de Kloet University of Amsterdam Flânerie and acrophilia in the postmetropolis: Rooftops in Hong Kong cinema Abstract Keywords Living in the spectacle of Hong Kong’s skyscape, how often do its dwellers actu- Hong Kong ally see, not to mention reach, its rooftops? Intriguingly, despite their apparent rooftops ephemerality and inaccessibility, the vertical fringes of the city feature frequently postmetropolitan in Hong Kong cinema: the rooftop. In this article, we connect the cinematic trope Infernal Affairs of the rooftop to the anxiety of living in a postmetropolitan city like Hong Kong. High Noon We do so by walking with Georg Simmel’s blasé attitude and Benjamin’s flânerie Inner Senses in the metropolitan city, to meet Christoph Lindner’s more (self-)destructive blasé individual trying to grapple with his postmetropolitan anxiety. Finally, we posit to understand the deployment of rooftops in Hong Kong cinema – in the crime thriller Infernal Affairs, the coming-of-age drama High Noon and the psychological horror Inner Senses – as a way out, literally and figuratively, a space where one negoti- ates and perhaps overcomes a blasé postmetropolitan individuality with moments of radical reconnection. 139 JCC_7.2_Chow_139-155.indd 139 6/12/13 9:35:32 AM Yiu Fai Chow | Jeroen de Kloet The vertical, as a vector of meaning, the rising upwards, corresponds to the desire to overcome the earth’s gravity, the desire to be elevated above the pressure and ‘anxiety of the earthbound,’ as well as the desire to gain a ‘higher view of things,’ as Ibsen says, from which man may shape, master, or, in a word, appropriate the known.

    Film gatekeepers corp. presents… So this is China? Chinese cinema(s) distribution and circulation: between global markets, capitalist art-houses, and informal venues of resistance. By Rebeca Lucia Galindo B.Sc., Universidad Autónoma de Bucaramanga, 2009 Extended Essay Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the School of Communication in Global Communication Faculty of Communication, Art and Technology Rebeca Lucia Galindo 2014 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2014 Approval Name: Rebeca Lucia Galindo Degree: Master of Arts (Communication) Title: Film gatekeepers corp. presents… So this is China? Chinese cinema(s) distribution and circulation: between global markets, capitalist art-houses, and informal venues of resistance Supervisory Committee: Program Director: Yuezhi Zhao Professor Katherine Reilly Senior Supervisor Professor Sun Yingchun Supervisor Communication University of China Date Defended/Approved: August 8, 2014 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Abstract This paper argues that our access of Chinese films is mediated by politicized cannons, non-transparent global distribution patterns, and the commodified need of cultural audiovisual references. To observe how global distribution and circulation of Chinese cinemas materialize an exploratory case study was used to analyze those Chinese films that have been distributed in important art-houses in Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, Chile, and Peru in recent years. The analysis shows how distribution for that part of the global south is translocal and problematically rooted in European and U.S. hegemonic media capitals. This has implications for how we think about China’s ideological projection. Este documento argumenta que el acceso a los filmes chinos está mediado por cánones politizados, patrones globales no-transparentes y la necesidad comodificada de referencias culturales audiovisuales.

    IN-VISIBILITY: THE SENTIMENTAL IN CHINESE CINEMA SINCE THE 1990s by Hui Miao A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of American and Canadian Studies School of Historical Studies The University of Birmingham November 2010 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Hui Miao In-visibility: The Sentimental in Chinese Cinema since the 1990s November 2010 Abstract The greater visibility of Chinese films brought by the wider global access and circulation has not satisfied the culturally specific understanding of Chinese cinema. The subject/object power relations stemming from the legacy of colonial and postcolonial discourse hinders the arrival of a better-balanced cross-cultural reading. The visibility of cinema provides a visual spectacle, it also challenges the audience with a communication of the epistemic side of visibility which feeds the images meaning and imagination and facilitates a more balanced culturally specific understanding. However, the epistemic side of visibility remains invisible under power-engaged cross-cultural reading. This study suggests that the sentimental provides a possibility for a better-balanced cross-cultural understanding through its provision of empathic connection with the culture, history and the psyche.

  • Film and the Chinese Medical Humanities
    Film and the Chinese Medical Humanities “This collection of film studies brings together the creative work of China’s most talented filmmakers as they reflect on contemporary social problems, work out in narratives and images an original analysis of what’s wrong with us (as individuals, as a society, and in cultural settings), and as they propose paths to redemption.” – Judith Farquhar, Max Palevsky Professor Emerita, Department of Anthropology, University of Chicago Film and the Chinese Medical Humanities is the first book to reflect on the power of film in representing medical and health discourse in China in both the past and the present, as well as in shaping its future. Drawing on both feature and documentary films from mainland China, the chapters each engage with the field of medicine through the visual arts. They cover themes such as the history of doctors and their concepts of disease and therapies, understanding the patient experience of illness and death, and establishing empathy and compassion in medical practice, as well as the HIV/AIDs epidemic during the 1980s and 1990s and changing attitudes towards disability. Inherently interdisciplinary in nature, the contributors therefore provide different perspectives from the fields of history, psychiatry, film studies, anthropology, linguistics, public health and occupational therapy as they relate to China and people who identify as Chinese. Their combined approaches are united by a passion for improving the cross-cultural understanding of the body and ultimately healthcare itself. A key resource for educators in the Medical Humanities, this book will be useful to students and scholars of Chinese Studies and Film Studies as well as global health, medical anthropology and medical history.
