研究紹介

Her research traces the spatial and social transformations of cities in China and beyond, analysing how urban modernities, state–society relations, and practices of kinship and relatedness are reshaped through historically sedimented processes of rapid urbanisation. Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in Beijing, Chengdu, Chongqing, and The Hague, she explores the entanglements of everyday life, memory, infrastructure, architecture, urban planning, and governance in producing contested urban realities and future imaginaries.

主な研究テーマ
