Description

Explore the transformation of Chinese domestic life through the lens of technology in Wang Min'an's highly original work. This book examines how the sudden commodification of domestic space starting in the late 1980s changed the way families live and interact with the world. By focusing on the assemblage of household machines and electronic appliances, the text provides a new way to understand contemporary domesticity in China. It moves beyond simple descriptions of urban housing to analyze how moving into new apartments actually means moving into entirely new modes of living. This study offers deep insights into the reconstitution of Chinese society through the objects found within the home, making it an essential read for those interested in postcolonial politics and modern sociology.
