具体描述
On the eve of International Women’s Day in 2015, the Chinese government arrested five feminist activists and jailed them for thirty-seven days. The Feminist Five became a global cause célèbre, with Hillary Clinton speaking out on their behalf and activists inundating social media with #FreetheFive messages. But the Five are only symbols of a much larger feminist movement of civil rights lawyers, labor activists, performance artists, and online warriors prompting an unprecedented awakening among China’s educated, urban women. In Betraying Big Brother, journalist and scholar Leta Hong Fincher argues that the popular, broad-based movement poses the greatest challenge to China’s authoritarian regime today.
Through interviews with the Feminist Five and other leading Chinese activists, Hong Fincher illuminates both the difficulties they face and their “joy of betraying Big Brother,” as one of the Feminist Five wrote of the defiance she felt during her detention. Tracing the rise of a new feminist consciousness now finding expression through the #MeToo movement, and describing how the Communist regime has suppressed the history of its own feminist struggles, Betraying Big Brother is a story of how the movement against patriarchy could reconfigure China and the world.

##洪理达真的literally打破了我对斯坦福的学术训练能力的幻想，两本书两个极端，但是一致的烂。leftover那本书不加论证地发表了一堆骇人听闻的言论，这本书1-7章全纪实讲故事，没有一丁点理论建构或是分析，讲的还基本是翻微信公众号都差不多能知道的故事，narrative也不咋地。我看斯坦福不行。
评分##很尴尬的写法...算纪实感觉作者本人感情过于丰沛，算学术向又没啥分析....叙事也七上八下的，经常蹦一句前不着村后不着店....就是可能在线索有限的条件下梳理了近年社运的题材不容易，给一颗感情星.....
评分##非常失望

评分##2.5/5 Fincher would benefit if she bothered to hire a few editors for advice, because her writing appears tediously dry and repetitive, often without delving deeper into the 'history side' of the issue, not to mention that the feminism discussed in this book seems somewhat naive and strategically flawed in excluding men from the conversation.
评分##这是一本值得读一读的书，感谢这位作者的发声
评分##打低分的公刃快爬
评分##非常极其一般。可以肯定的是记录了近几年年轻一代特别是五姐妹的运动细节。但是到了介绍历史背景深入论述的部分，基本就是大型文献综述，语言读起来非常不顺，作者自己的知识贡献很有限
