Includes bibliographical references

Positioned at the intersection of cultural historiography, archival studies and ethnography, my dissertation looks at the formation of post-socialist Chinese subjects and the material culture of People's Republic of China after the Economic Reform through the lens of an intriguing cultural history of smuggling, piracy, and copycat manufacturing of media products in the past four decades. This work will supplement current studies on contemporary Chinese society with an investigation of a semi-underground, yet gigantic, cultural component---"piracy culture." It digs into the "mentality" of China's persisting indifference to copyright protection, which has become notoriously famous worldwide. Rather than looking at piracy as a symptom of globalization and the cyber mediascape, this dissertation proposes a cultural historical approach to deal with the particular genealogy of piracy within the local context of Reform-era China and its social (trans)formation. How the meaning and practice of piracy were constructed and transformed over time is examined against the background of China's massive social and cultural change (privatization, the emergence of dissident discourse, and the rise of consumerism) from the 1980s till now.
