About
Cara Wallis is an interdisciplinary scholar whose work spans the fields of mobile/social media, China studies, intersectional and transnational feminism, critical studies of technology, and global media. Her overarching research question concerns how uses and understandings of technology, as these are informed by multiple axes of identity, both reproduce inequitable power relations and open up spaces for individual and collective agency and thus social change. She focuses on how such processes emerge among groups that are socially and economically marginalized, in particular China's rural and internal migrant populations.
