Raw documentary sheds light on the lives of sex workers in China
Wheat Harvest, a documentary on the lives of sex workers in Beijing, sparked controversy and was banned in China. Why is it still relevant?
The articles featured in the Gender column explore both the specificities and/or the universality of the gender-related dynamics, events, and debates that happened or are happening in China (sex, gender, family, and sexuality). Our writers believe in the usefulness of Gender Studies as a conceptual tool of analysis and will thus apply it to the Chinese context in all the articles featured below.
