Muddling through school life: an ethnographic study of the subculture of ‘deviant’students in China
This paper reports the findings of an eight-month ethnographic study of a small group of at-risk youths in a school of a southern coastal city in China. The process leading to the young students being marginalised by the school system and how they developed a ‘muddling through’ subculture to counteract this marginalisation is revealed. It is argued that this small group of at-risk youths has capitalised on their subculture and used it to resist authorities, to acquire social skills and to safeguard their psychological well-being. The present study contributes to the literature in several ways. First, the in-depth description of the subculture of a group of at-risk youths in a Chinese school provides a Chinese angle for youth (post-) subculture studies. Second, the critical discussion about the ‘empowerment’ role that the ‘deviant’ subculture plays enriches the literature about the functions of youth culture.

Toward a more equal admission? Access in the mass higher education era
As a system with a legacy of believing in equity in educational opportunities, China’s higher education sector is more than ever shaped by social and educational reforms, in both radical and modest forms (Mok 1999; Duan 2003; Postiglione 2015). For example,
the expansion of the Chinese higher education sector, to a large extent, has been achieved by introducing market forces into the provision of higher education. In a new discourse of the user-pays market, higher education costs are assumed to be the shared responsibility of the government, communities, and families. The financial burden of higher education has shifted partly from the state to the individual students and their families. Does this mean that family incomes will become an increasingly important factor in access to higher education for students from different social backgrounds? Recent decades have also seen independent recruitment by China’s most selective institutions. They are allowed to recruit a small number of students who must pass a test set by the institution. Interviews are usually required. Students have to be more prepared if they want to succeed in these interviews.
This requires investment in the early stages of their schooling. What are the possible
effects of this reform? Will this disadvantage those students from rural and lower socioeconomic backgrounds?
