Download or read book Gao Village Revisited written by Mobo C F Gao and published by The Chinese University of Hong Kong Press. This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The personal stories of the Gao villagers demonstrate and are related to changes in China. This is a close study of Gao Village twenty years after the author, an anthropologist and native of Gao village, wrote his original ethnography Gao Village. It combines ethnographic analysis, personal vignettes, and a number of fascinating stories, which presents a convincing yet complex picture of how Gao villagers interact with the outside world. With his sympathetic and insider's approach, the author argues that rural Chinese display great entrepreneurship and inner strength of selfimprovement; they are active contributors to China's economic boom.
