  • - Cultivating Middle Class Taste
    av Zheng (University of Sydney Yi
    2 450,-

    This book examines the transformations in form, genre, and content of contemporary Chinese print media.

It argues that this reinvention of Chinese print media vis- -vis the creation of a post-socialist taste (class) culture is an essential part of the cultural and affective transformations in contemporary Chinese society, and demonstrates how the reinvention of such taste culture effectively creates, through new kinds of reading materials and carefully demarcated target audiences, a middle-class civility that serves as the locus of the new niche media market.
