具体描述
Leta Hong Fincher is a journalist and scholar who has written for the New York Times, Washington Post, Guardian, Ms. Magazine, the BBC and CNN. She is the author of Leftover Women: The Resurgence of Gender Inequality in China.
On the eve of International Women’s Day in 2015, the Chinese government arrested five feminist activists and jailed them for thirty-seven days. The Feminist Five became a global cause célèbre, with Hillary Clinton speaking out on their behalf and activists inundating social media with #FreetheFive messages. But the Five are only symbols of a much larger feminist movement of civil rights lawyers, labor activists, performance artists, and online warriors prompting an unprecedented awakening among China’s educated, urban women. In Betraying Big Brother, journalist and scholar Leta Hong Fincher argues that the popular, broad-based movement poses the greatest challenge to China’s authoritarian regime today.
Through interviews with the Feminist Five and other leading Chinese activists, Hong Fincher illuminates both the difficulties they face and their “joy of betraying Big Brother,” as one of the Feminist Five wrote of the defiance she felt during her detention. Tracing the rise of a new feminist consciousness now finding expression through the #MeToo movement, and describing how the Communist regime has suppressed the history of its own feminist struggles, Betraying Big Brother is a story of how the movement against patriarchy could reconfigure China and the world.
用户评价
##2.5/5 Fincher would benefit if she bothered to hire a few editors for advice, because her writing appears tediously dry and repetitive, often without delving deeper into the 'history side' of the issue, not to mention that the feminism discussed in this book seems somewhat naive and strategically flawed in excluding men from the conversation.
评分##某些单方面决定以评价学术专著的标准来鸡蛋里挑骨头的用户，实际上是无事找茬，暴露了基于立场和偏见而非基于事实和公正的马脚
评分##这本书我当作纪录来看，当作纪念feminist five和新一代feminists 的努力吧。 虽然我并不适很赞同他们中某些人的思路(x
评分 评分##说是中国女权主义的觉醒，然而通篇讲来讲去就是五姐妹。叙事翻来覆去，重复啰嗦，个人感情色彩太浓，有损阅读体验，章节之间关系不强，理论论证站不住脚，精卫填海和秋瑾的故事联系太牵强，数据来源也模模糊糊。除了五姐妹的采访，和人民日报的几篇文章，作者似乎没有任何其他个人贡献了。
评分##这是一本值得读一读的书，感谢这位作者的发声
