In spring 2009 she launched an NGO 2.0 project (“Chinese NGOs in the Web 2.0 Environment") undertaken in collaboration with three Chinese universities, Ogilvy & Mather China, and two Chinese NGO partner organizations. The project is building cross-sector collaboration with foundations, academia, grassroots NGOs, the media sector, Corporate Social Responsibility, the government, and software developers’ communities in China.
Professor Wang published several books and articles, among them, the award-winning The Story of Stone, High Culture Fever, and the editor of Locating China: Space, Place, and Popular Culture (available in Paperback from Routledge), Popular Culture and the Chinese State, China’s Avant-Garde Fiction, Cinema and Desire (with Tani Barlow).
