Since the implementation of reform in 1978, the economic and socio-cultural environment of modern China has experienced a dramatic transformation under the influence of urbanization and globalization, facilitating more individualized identity among Chinese youth. This book bridges the gap between an emergent emphasis on individualisation and the country's traditional norms and values. It focuses on young people's understandings of various forms of relationships such as cohabitation, extramarital relationships and multiple relationships, suggesting a challenge to traditional familial values and an increasingly diversified understanding of the concepts of love and romance. By examining the formation of relationships among 21st century Chinese youth, notably through the lens of popular Chinese TV dating programs, this book considers how dating and relationships mirror China's changing societal structure and examines social and cultural transformations in Chinese society." 001358537 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001358537 650_0 $$aMate selection$$zChina. 001358537 650_0 $$aYouth$$zChina$$xAttitudes. 001358537 650_0 $$aDating shows (Television programs)$$zChina. 001358537 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001358537 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aYang, Chao.$$tTelevision and Dating in Contemporary China : Identities, Love and Intimacy.$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore, ©2017$$z9789811039867 001358537 852__ $$bebk 001358537 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-10-3987-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001358537 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1358537$$pGLOBAL_SET 001358537 980__ $$aBIB 001358537 980__ $$aEBOOK 001358537 982__ $$aEbook 001358537 983__ $$aOnline 001358537 994__ $$a92$$bISE
