The Wuhan Lockdown

Abstract

The book's middle chapters examine the various bold and careful acts of Wuhan residents during the lockdown. A scrupulous student of China's internet, Yang devotes most of his attention to analyzing China's fast-changing internet culture through the lens of the Wuhan lockdown. After the Wuhan lockdown in early 2020, China imposed lockdown in every city where there was an outbreak, until it lifted the zero COVID policy in December 2022.
