Contesting Cyberspace in China goes beyond the typical fascination with Chinese censorship and internet controls. It investigates the ways in which social media and online expression are pluralizing political debate in China, giving ample room for fiery nationalists and indignant leftists to attack the regime's liberal critics. The book is an excellent study of the diversity, drama, and defiance of China's netizens. -- Mary E. Gallagher, University of Michigan How has the Internet changed state-society relations in China? How have social groups engaged in a guerrilla war with the authorities over cyberspace? And how is the Internet remaking China? In this empirically rich work, Rongbin Han has provided us with a vivid analysis of the interactions between the state and society in China's cyberspace. Those who are interested in cyber affairs must read this brilliant book. -- Zheng Yongnian, National University of Singapore If you are looking for that long-awaited book on China's Internet censorship, look no further. Rongbin Han's Contesting Cyberspace in China illuminates the labyrinths of that proverbial cat-and-mouse game with clarity and sophistication. It will be a thought-provoking and rewarding read. -- Guobin Yang, University of Pennsylvania
