James Farrer
One of the cards in our sleaves of the upcoming China Speakers Bureau is our speaker James Farrer, a leading expert on sex in China. I just wrote in the profile for our upcoming website about him:
James Farrer is associate professor sociology at the Sofia University in Tokyo and a leading expert on sexuality in China and Japan. In a dynamic and knowledgeable way he addresses one of the fast-changing sides of China's dynamic society: its youth culture.
Mr. Farrer started his fieldwork as a sociologist and Fulbright scholar in the second half of the 1990s in Shanghai. His groundbreaking research made him to one of the most-quoted international sociologists in this field and led to the publications of his standard work on sex in China: Opening Up: Youth Sex Culture and Market Reform in Shanghai.
I just learned that James Farrer will be in China for most of August and September, creating an unique opportunity for speaking engagements. If you are interested is hearing him talk, please do drop me a line.
