Funded Activity Summary

The Paichusuo (the Chinese police station): How Governments Construct Private Lives. Employing the architecture of a Chinese police station to frame a series of questions about the policing of identity, this study could best be described as ethnography in a dual register. First, it is the only ethnographic study of a Chinese police station ever undertaken. Second, it employs the insights gained from this close scrutiny of grass roots level policing to raise a broader range of more philosophically orientated questions about governmentality and the social construction of subjectivity and identity.
