Er wordt onderzocht op welke manieren dagbladen mannelijke en vrouwelijke politici omschrijven en of er een verschil geconstateerd kan worden tussen die omschrijvingen.

To research whether the role of women in society is still being influenced through media by the government, various online media are studied. Well-known Chinese women portrayed in these media are linked to one of the four categories created by Hung and Li.

This does not necessarily mean that the Chinese government does not desire to influence its society on this topic.Show less
