Online Society in China: Creating, celebrating, and instrumentalising the online carnival - Paperback

by David Kurt Herold (Editor), Peter Marolt (Editor)

This book discusses the rich and varied culture of China's online society, and its impact on offline China. It argues that the Internet in China is a separate 'space', and is more than merely a technological or media extension of offline Chinese society.
