Your apartment window, set with steel bars, is little more than a meter away from the building next door if it weren’t for the frosted glass, you’d be able to see directly into the room across the alley. Going outside and looking up, you’d glimpse the tall buildings in another community in the sky only through the narrow strips between the buildings. This is the life in the urban village. But despite all that, urban villages are not the depressing slums they might resemble. In narrow lanes paved with concrete, children play. Square mahjong tables are a common sight in ground-floor living rooms that open onto the street. The urban village is a flourishing lively community, but it rests on an unstable foundation.‘’ - Baily Hu, 2008.

  • China Media Bulletin
    CHINA MEDIA BULLETIN A weekly update of press freedom and censorship news related to the People’s Republic of China Issue No. 45: February 2, 2012 Headlines Media pressure forces state concessions on air quality Twitter unveils location-based censorship, netizens react Google thrives in China despite search engine pullout Hacking of Canadian law firms traced to China U.S. paper examines Taiwan’s pro-China media owner BROADCAST / PRINT MEDIA NEWS Media pressure forces state concessions on air quality On February 1, under pressure from both traditional and online media, Beijing’s Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau promised to set up 30 monitoring stations by the end of 2012 to inform the public of the capital’s air quality, including readings on the most dangerous particle size, known as PM 2.5. Beginning in May 2011, a group of netizens in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou bought their own measurement devices and initiated daily reporting of pollution online. As the data was no longer secret, the government’s environmental propaganda, including the claim that Beijing had experienced 286 “blue-sky days” in 2011, faced harsh criticism online (see CMB No. 42). Traditional media also took up the cause. The Beijing-based liberal magazine Caixin cited the U.S. embassy’s data on air pollution in the city and demanded an explanation for the discrepancy with official figures. Even the state-run China Daily quoted experts who raised concerns about the levels of PM 2.5 particles in the air. A January 30 blog post by the New York–based Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) described the media activism on the issue and noted other examples of press exposés that had an impact on Chinese government policy over the years, despite strict state censorship.

  • Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler a Dissertati
    Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2018 Reading Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Chair Ann Anagnost Stevan Harrell Danny Hoffman Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology ©Copyright 2018 Darren T. Byler University of Washington Abstract Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies This study argues that Uyghurs, a Turkic-Muslim group in contemporary Northwest China, and the city of Ürümchi have become the object of what the study names “terror capitalism.” This argument is supported by evidence of both the way state-directed economic investment and security infrastructures (pass-book systems, webs of technological surveillance, urban cleansing processes and mass internment camps) have shaped self-representation among Uyghur migrants and Han settlers in the city. It analyzes these human engineering and urban planning projects and the way their effects are contested in new media, film, television, photography and literature. It finds that this form of capitalist production utilizes the discourse of terror to justify state investment in a wide array of policing and social engineering systems that employs millions of state security workers. The project also presents a theoretical model for understanding how Uyghurs use cultural production to both build and refuse the development of this new economic formation and accompanying forms of gendered, ethno-racial violence.
