Li argues that television has largely been the province of the state, even as the market has dominated the development of online video. Thus online video became a space where people could question state media and the state's preferred ideological narratives about the nation, history, and society. Li connects this relatively unregulated arena to the second channel that opened up in the early days of economic reform--piracy in all its permutations. She compares the dual cultural sphere to China's economic zoning; the marketized domain of online video is the cultural equivalent of the Special Economic Zones, which were developed according to market principles in China's coastal cities.Li explains that although the relaxed oversight of online video may seem to represent a loosening of the party-state's grip on media, the practice of cultural zoning in fact demonstrates the the state's strategic control of the media environment. She describes how China's online video industry developed into an original, creative force of production and distribution that connected domestic private production companies, transnational corporations, and a vast network of creative labor from amateurs to professional content creators. Li notes that China has increased state management of the internet since 2014, signaling that online and offline censorship standards may be unified. Cultural zoning as a technique of cultural governance, however, will likely remain. 001412170 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001412170 650_0 $$aInternet videos$$xLaw and legislation$$zChina. 001412170 653__ $$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Media Studies 001412170 653__ $$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Policy / Communication Policy 001412170 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001412170 852__ $$bebk 001412170 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/11675.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001412170 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001412170 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1412170$$pGLOBAL_SET 001412170 980__ $$aBIB 001412170 980__ $$aEBOOK 001412170 982__ $$aEbook 001412170 983__ $$aOnline
