Recenzii

"This is an important study documenting the dramatic and unpredictable changes that have made and remade a village in Anhui. He Hongguang has uncovered a wealth of detail to reveal the key aspects of political, social, economic and spatial transformation. Anyone interested in the complexities of rural China should read this book." David Bray, University of Sydney, Australia
"Dr He's study of rural China is an original and innovative contribution to the study of space and governance in a village setting. The study builds upon the pioneering application of Michel Foucault's concept of governmentality and in so doing broadens our horizons as to how governmentality is playing out in specific non-Western contexts. Those interested in better understanding social change in a rapidly changing China will find the detailed empirical study and application of theory in this book a welcome addition to the field." - Gary Sigley, University of Western Australia
"Hongguang He extends Foucault's ideas to the study of rural China. The result is a deeply analytical work that narrates the nature as well as causes and consequences of social transformation on multiple levels. A distinctive contribution to Chinese Studies and, more broadly, rural sociology." - Eddy U, University of California Davis, USA
