Contributing to a scientific field is not always a scenic route. One cannot always act in the world according to the posted signs others have thought constituted relevant information.

Whilst the impact of the 'publish or perish' adage has received considerable attention from academics in the West, it remains under-researched in non-Western contexts, such as China. We address this gap by examining our lived experiences of navigating Chinese academia and academic publishing in the form of a duoethnographic collaborative…

It is commonplace to think that the university space is that of a docile body ideology for the reception of the diversity of bodies and that individuals who have been inserted and are maintained in this space are absent from symbolic violence.
