Abstract

This article discusses the political and social impact of the television program "Super Girl" in China. China's State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television issued laws governing competition-inspired television shows. The author speculates that television shows allowing viewers to vote for contestants may encourage Chinese citizens to want to vote for political officials as well.
