SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Xiaohong Xu Memorial Conference
DESCRIPTION:Professor Xiaohong Xu\, sociologist of politics\, culture\, revolution\, political economy\, and China\, passed away on December 12\, 2023. His death interrupted a period of great creativity and productivity.

The symposium will feature prominent scholars in Xiaohong’s fields\, who will discuss his work in four panels\, each dedicated to one of his recent contributions.\n\nFeatured speakers include Elizabeth Armstrong\, Ann Lin\, Mary Gallagher\, Ho-fung Hung\, Roi Livne\, Yan Long\, Stephanie Mudge\, Yuhua Wang\, Xueguang Zhou\, Mark Mizruchi\, Jonah Stuart Brundage\, Nicholas Wilson\, Yang Zhang\, Julia Adams\, Isaac Reed\, Robert Jansen\, Genevieve Zubrzycki\, and Yang Su.\n\n*This event is hybrid with virtual attendance options.
