In the ACLA 2011 annual conference in British Columbia in Canada, this panel invites papers that explore diversified visual representations of postfeminism in Chinese language cinema. Topics of interest may include, but not limited to: the re-definition of female subjectivity in the era of Chinese post-feminism, how consumer choices facilitate the re-configuration of the “new woman” in the post-socialist China, how is women’s love and marriage mediated through modern technologies and tele-communications, the interaction between the consumerist postfeminism and the grassroot culture, how traditional gender values transform and are transformed by postfeminism, and how postfeminism problematizes China’s “economic miracle” when it remains aphasic to the vast population of women who live in the rural area.
