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。
評分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.
評分三星半,主要看素材,和同類話題的《dealing in desire》比起來差太多
評分有趣。but有一些論斷過於不負責任瞭。

TIANTIAN ZHENG is Associate Professor of Sociology/Anthropology at State University of New York, USA, and author of Red Lights: The Lives of Sex Workers in Postsocialist China.
<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...
