 eley)\n	\n		Aims of the Workshop:\n	\n		Since the beginning of the 21st Ce
 ntury\, the network-outsourcing model has transformed the previously close
 d and monopolized modes of production into open and sharing ones. With cor
 porate boundaries being pushed\, organizations will view broader communiti
 es as the ‘new world’. Online communities are now able to organize peo
 ple\, constituting the most efficient unit of media production. Meanwhile\
 , with the unprecedented “global expansion” of media conglomerates\, t
 he trends of commercialization\, privatization\, centralization\, and dere
 gulation in the communications industry have intensified\, rather than dec
 lined. They have become increasingly integrated with publication\, broadca
 sting and information services. The most up-to-date methods of business ad
 ministration\, including processessuch as  production\, marketing\, finan
 cing and accounting\, have penetrated every dimension of the media. Throug
 h the penetration of the communications industry\, a new form of hierarchi
 cal organization is being established worldwide. Media organizations’ go
 al of profit-making have been further integrated into the disciplinary pow
 er of capitalism\, the hegemony of heteronormativity and patriachy. Living
  in specific social contexts\, individuals are likely to feel the control 
 of the political and economic systems\, but not necessarily to see the gen
 der order shaped by media\, as well as its complex and subtle control mech
 anisms. The gender order tends to be integrated into economic interests\, 
 political goals and cultural norms. Moreover\, the power hierarchy of soci
 al gender is mutually intersected with the hypocrisy and exclusivity hidde
 n in the notions of class\, race\, nation\, region and citizenship. The 
 “Fudan – Harvard-Yenching Institute Training Workshop on 'New Media an
 d Gender Studies'" is intended to both enrich the theoretical quality of c
 ritical media studies\, and to contribute to policy planning and practices
 . Reflecting on globalization and international references\, academic and 
 theoretical works focused on the field of “media and gender studies” w
 ill provide new insights and perspectives to enrich Chinese academia. They
  will help to broaden the theoretical horizon of China’s communications 
 research\, to intervene in the reproduction of the existing social order\,
  to seek out forces for social transformation in Chinese society\, and to 
 critically analyse the processes of ‘knowledge’ production. All these 
 will enhance the teaching of gender equality and its topics exploration in
  the future. \n\n\n	Invited lecturers:\n\n	\n		Dr. Jin Cao (Professor of
