"An intriguing exploration of user-generated pornography, erotically-charged art, and changing sexual practices in Hong Kong and mainland China. "People's Pornography" goes beyond the well-known facts of China's attempts to censor the Internet to the often humorous and inventive efforts of Chinese netizens to jump the Great Firewall."--Clarissa Smith, University of Sunderland, author of One for the Girls! "Katrien Jacobs presents an engaging, sober, and controversial analysis of a pornographic culture caught among the equally fierce forces of government control, consumer culture's manipulation, the diffusive nature of the Internet, and the citizens' own conflicting desires. Anyone interested in China will find this book informative and eye-opening."--Laikwan Pang, Chinese University of Hong Kong "Katrien Jacobs is among the most curious and innovative writers on the topic of sexuality and technology working today. Most research on pornography and the Internet has focused on the West, so "People's Pornography" is a very welcome addition to our understanding of both these areas. Jacobs's book is a fascinating examination of sex, citizenship, and politics."--Feona Attwood, Sheffield Hallam University An intriguing exploration of user-generated pornography, erotically-charged art, and changing sexual practices in Hong Kong and mainland China.

Reseña del editor:
"People's Pornography" offers an unprecedented investigation of pornography and activist media cultures on the Chinese internet. The book will give a wide-ranging overview of Chinese porn cultures and political controversies, which are gaining popularity amongst Chinese web users yet are different from their Western counterparts. By looking at new tendencies in pornography, erotic subcultures, and digital citizenship, the book will offer a timely contribution to studies of Chinese media, internet culture, sexuality and surveillance society. The book benefits from many black and white images as examples.
