'China in the Mix' fills a critical void with an original, pioneering study of the connections and intersections of film, media, music, and popular culture in contemporary China under postsocialist reform, capitalist globalization, and hybridization. It explores fascinating topics, including appropriations of popular folklore in the Chinese new wave of the 1980s; Chinese rock 'n' roll and youth cinema in fin de siècle China; the political-economic impact of free market imperatives and Hollywood pictures on Chinese film industry and filmmaking in the late 20th century; the reception and adaptation of hip hop; and the emerging role of Internet popular culture and social media in the early 21st century UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.14325/mississippi/9781496812605.001.0001 ER -
