Curriculum Vitae
Yu Sun is a PhD candidate at the Center for Media and Journalism Studies within Faculty of Arts at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. She came to the Netherlands for a PhD study after graduating from her MA program in International Journalism and Communication Studies of Beijing Foreign Studies University in China in 2013. Her research interests involve: online deliberation, civic engagement, gender politics, and online public sphere.
She finishes her PhD project and has written Engaging in politics: Everyday
political talk in online China (PhD dissertation). The project studies those small-scale
interactions among ordinary citizens on the Chinese internet in the everyday life context. It shifts the focus to the citizen communications in internet-based everyday spaces beyond those traditional political spaces people join online. Specifically, the study implies the approach of everyday political talk, which may serve as an alternative way to link Chinese citizens’ personal concerns to politics.
