SUMMARY:Li Xiaojiang: Feminism and the Question of Affect in Contemporary China
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Shih-Diing Liu\, 2024-25 Visiting Scholar; Professor of Communication and Senior Research Fellow at the Institute of Advanced Studies\, University of MacauModerator: David Der-wei Wang\, Edward C. Henderson Professor of Chinese Literature\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nShih-Diing Liu (刘世鼎) is Professor of Communication and a Senior Research Fellow at the Institute of Advanced Studies\, University of Macau. Liu’s research focuses on exploring the emotional dynamics of politics\, the formation of popular identity\, the expressive and embodied forms of political practices\, and the psychology of nationalism in contemporary China. His books include The Politics of People: Protest Cultures in China (SUNY Press\, 2019) and Affective Spaces: The Cultural Politics of Emotion in China (Edinburgh University Press\, 2024\, with Wei Shi). Continuing with a focus on emotion from the Affective Spaces project\, his current research explores the intersection of affect and gender in contemporary China. Arguing that Chinese gender has increasingly become an archive of feelings marked by ambivalence toward authorities\, this book project uncovers the power of emotion in negotiating the gendered order. Meanwhile\, he is also working on a book project that explores the emotional capabilities of Artificial Intelligence. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
