Produktbeschreibung
Situated within feminist media and cultural studies, this book examines the everyday aesthetic labour of young middle-class Chinese women and their related social media practices. It also critically contextualises postfeminism within China's paradoxically neoliberal society.

Drawing upon in-depth interviews with young middle-class women in China's first-tier cities, the book offers a nuanced feminist understanding of young women's femininities, identities, and subjectivities in contemporary digital China. By analysing the self-making and self-fashioning practices of these women, it contributes critical perspectives to the popular yet contested concept of postfeminism within feminist scholarship. Readers will encounter vivid accounts of young Chinese women's everyday social media experiences, exploring how they navigate beauty cultures and negotiate shifting gender-class norms in urban Chinese society. Furthermore, this book provides valuable insights into the scholarly concept of postfeminism in the unique context of China, shedding light on transnational gendered cultures in today's social media age.

Tailored for scholars and students in gender and cultural studies, media studies, and China studies, the book proves especially beneficial for those interested in burgeoning feminist and gender-related research topics in the transnational context of digital China. It also appeals to a broader readership intrigued by digital culture, gender dynamics, and notions of beauty in contemporary Chinese society.
