Runaway Wives, Urban Crimes, and Survival Tactics in Wartime Beijing, 1937–1949 - Harvard East Asian Monographs
Zhao Ma
Zhao Ma explores lower-class women’s struggles with poverty, deprivation, and marital strife in Beijing from 1937 to 1949. He shows how the everyday survival tactics they devised allowed them to subtly deflect, subvert, and “escape without leaving” powerful forces such as the surveillance state, reformist discourse, and revolutionary politics.
