视角理论普通,无甚洞见,材料琐碎。
评分至少手机让我们做到了平等地低下高贵的头颅
评分从手机来看becoming打工妹的状态。手机一方面是governmentality对普通人的内化,一方面是个体承认,反抗,重塑话语建造。selective vs necessary convergence的提法较有新意,其他的民族志部分较为平庸。(很希望看到更多农村这类科技的使用,来和打工妹的手机研究相呼应,真正挖掘出unheard和invisible。)
评分Immobile mobility.

I study the social and cultural implications of new media technologies and issues of power, difference, and subjectivity, particularly in China. My work examines how uses and understandings of technology both reproduce inequitable power relations and open up spaces for individual and collective agency and thus, social change. I am the author of Technomobility in China: Young Migrant Women and Mobile Phones (NYU Press, 2013), which is an ethnographic exploration of the use of mobile phones by young rural-to-urban migrant women working in the low-level service sector in Beijing. I am currently working on a manuscript based on my recent research in China, where I examined the use of social media by different groups of people - white collar workers, college students, migrant workers, and rural entrepreneurs - and how such usage is articulated to issues of voice and empowerment, trust and risk, and lifestyle and aspirations.
As unprecedented waves of young, rural women journey to cities in China, not only to work, but also to “see the world”and gain some autonomy, they regularly face significant institutional obstacles as well as deep-seated anti-rural prejudices. Based on immersive fieldwork, Cara Wallis provides an intimate portrait of the social, cultural, and economic implications of mobile communication for a group of young women engaged in unskilled service work in Beijing, where they live and work for indefinite periods of time. While simultaneously situating her work within the fields of feminist studies, technology studies, and communication theory, Wallis explores the way in which the cell phone has been integrated into the transforming social structures and practices of contemporary China, and the ways in which mobile technology enables rural young women—a population that has been traditionally marginalized and deemed as “backward” and “other”—to participate in and create culture, allowing them to perform a modern, rural-urban identity. In this theoretically rich and empirically grounded analysis,Wallis provides original insight into the co-construction of technology and subjectivity as well as the multiple forces that shape contemporary China.
