Cosmetic surgery in China has grown rapidly in recent years of dramatic social transition. Facing fierce competition in all spheres of daily life, more and more women consider cosmetic surgery as an investment to gain "beauty capital" to increase opportunities for social and career success.
Building on rich ethnographic data, this book presents the perspectives of women who have undergone cosmetic surgery, illuminating the aspirations behind their choices. The author explores how turbulent economic, socio-cultural and political changes in China since the 1980s have produced immense anxiety that is experienced by women both mentally and physically. This book will appeal to readers who are interested in gender studies, China studies, anthropology and sociology of the body, and cultural studies.

中國美容産業的民族誌,CU人類學係師姐作品。
评分水準一般,與Alexamder Edmonds 關於巴西整容文化的那本比起來,差距挺大。
评分除瞭部分章節偏離主題以及訪談樣本容量不夠之外,槽點不多,不過單純的body politics路綫在現在看來實在是太老生常談太套路化,每章開到開都就能猜到結尾。。。主綫就是粗綫條的曆史背景、推動整容的社會與商業市場因素(好看的人更容易找工作找伴侶以及大眾媒體/話語對審美觀和美化身體手段的引導)、整容産業發展(包括國傢的作用,即不反對)、全球化對審美觀和美化身體手段(韓國)的影響。部分支綫偏離瞭主題。最後總結人們(包括男性)選擇整容是structure下的agency。立場倒還是挺中立的。
评分看的是博士論文版~
评分鐵飯碗、青春飯的章節很不錯 後麵全球化和本土審美有點水
