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.
##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##作为Journalism来看1)文笔太差 2)夹杂了很多个人情感和观点;没有理论架构和仔细的论证也不能当作学术作品来看……最接近的文体可能是一篇超长op-ed?不伦不类的评价起来真是太尴尬了,也许可以给半颗感情星表示女权的主题很重要。。。
评分##中规中矩,面向「局外人」普及读物。要不是这本书,我差点儿把2017年的事都忘到脑后了。非要说这本书有什么特别之处,或许就是女权主义者应该断了指望老大哥帮你平权的念头——然而「老大哥靠不住」难道不是常识么?
评分##说是中国女权主义的觉醒,然而通篇讲来讲去就是五姐妹。叙事翻来覆去,重复啰嗦,个人感情色彩太浓,有损阅读体验,章节之间关系不强,理论论证站不住脚,精卫填海和秋瑾的故事联系太牵强,数据来源也模模糊糊。除了五姐妹的采访,和人民日报的几篇文章,作者似乎没有任何其他个人贡献了。
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##这本书我当作纪录来看,当作纪念feminist five和新一代feminists 的努力吧。 虽然我并不适很赞同他们中某些人的思路(x
