Bodies of Difference chronicles the compelling story of disability's emergence as an area of significant sociopolitical activity in contemporary China. Keenly attentive to how bodies are embedded in discourse, history, and personal exigency, Matthew Kohrman details ways that disability became a fount for the production of institutions and identities across the Chinese landscape during the final decades of the twentieth century. He looks closely at the creation of the China Disabled Persons' Federation and the lives of numerous individuals, among them Deng Pufang, son of China's Communist leader Deng Xiaoping.

用户评价

围绕残联的创立发展，探讨state，body与残疾人身份的关系。探讨政府biopower的同时，没有忽视复杂的政策制定，国际关系等上层运作以及一般identity politic中常见的inclusive/exclusive，性别，城乡（抑或中央/地方），不同类型残疾的斗争，也涉及了残疾人对其身份的negotiation，不仅揭示了残疾身份的建构性，也揭示了其主体的流动性。田野比较扎实，没有按照外国理论的套路生搬硬套，中规中矩的好书，第二章精彩。只是感觉理论和分析可以再深入些。
