490 1  Anthropology of policy

505 0  Sculpting in time -- Filial piety and existential dilemmas

       peers -- The double-binds of "education for quality" -- 
       Success, well-being and the question of suicide. 
520    China's One Child Policy and its rigorous national focus 
       on educational testing are well known. But what happens to
       those "lucky" few at the very top of the pyramid: elite 
       university students in China who grew up under the One 
       Child Policy and now attend the nation's most prestigious 
       universities? How do they feel about having made it to the
       top of an extremely competitive educational system--as 
       their parents' only child? What pressures do they face, 
       and how do they cope with the expectations associated with
       being the best? Fragile Elite explores the contradictions 
       and perplexities of being an elite student through 
       immersive ethnographic research conducted at two top 
       universities in China. Susanne Bregnbæk uncovers the 
       intimate psychological strains students suffer under the 
       pressure imposed on them by parents and state, where the 
       state acts as a parent and the parents reinforce the 
       state. Fragile Elite offers fascinating insights into the 
       intergenerational tensions at work in relation to the 
       ongoing shift in educational policy and definition of what
       a "quality" student, child, and citizen is in contemporary
       China.
