<DIV>In China today, sex work cannot be untangled from the phenomenon of rural-urban migration, the entertainment industry, and state power. In Red Lights, Tiantian Zheng highlights the urban karaoke bar as the locus at which these three factors intersect and provides a rich account of the lives of karaoke hostesses—a career whose name disguises the sex work and minimizes the surprising influence these women often have as power brokers.
Zheng embarked on two years of intensely embedded ethnographic fieldwork in her birthplace, Dalian, a large northeastern Chinese seaport of over six million people. During this time, Zheng lived and worked with a group of hostesses in a karaoke bar, facing many of the same dangers that they did and forming strong, intimate bonds with them. The result is an especially engaging, moving story of young, rural women struggling to find meaning, develop a modern and autonomous identity, and, ultimately, survive within an oppressively patriarchal state system.
Moving from her case studies to broader theories of sex, gender, and power, Zheng connects a growth in capitalist entrepreneurialism to the emergence of an urban sex industry, brilliantly illuminating the ways in which hostesses, their clients, and the state are mutually created in postsocialist China.

This is a ethnographic study of the sex workers (hostesses) at the high, middle, and low-tier of different karaoke bars in Dalian, a port city in the northeast of China. The author, Tiantian Zheng, adopts participation observation approach, which "allows re...
評分总体而言，这本书的价值在民族志叙事（十几二十年前的状况），但分析解释和理论部分并不怎么样。所以主要看里面的叙事和故事就好，当然一些撕逼和爱恨情仇点还是很有趣的。另外觉得作者在写书时其实在转嫁自己情感。作者似乎想把性工作者描述成了同男权与不公正的社会做...

用戶評價
2.5 田野做的很大膽，很用心。讀著這些愛恨情仇男男女女那點兒事兒又心酸又過癮的。但是理論部分實在是一言難盡。把“公糧”和“精”這兩個概念與國傢-傢庭（妻子）做一個對比分析從而得齣男性齣去找小姐是找迴男性氣質的一種體現（？？？）這樣的結論 真的是哭笑不得。
评分七分，無功無過，不溫不火。
评分是一本嚮西方讀者介紹中國的普識書。對於部分觀點持保留態度。作者常常通過對於中文語詞以及話語的再解釋來置於討論背景之中。關於”精液“與”交公糧“的內容不敢苟同。同時關於大連足球運動為什麼發達的原因探討貌似偏離民族誌主體。
评分沒有華麗的書寫技巧，甚至和很多嫻熟的ethnographer相比，鄭的筆法略顯生硬。但是這些性工作者的處境，能夠這樣被呈現齣來，就是此書的力量，值得讀者的敬意。
评分It really gives me a much clearer idea of what the karaoke bar in Dalian is like. This is an eye-opening book. The experience of the author is also very interesting. Check it out.
