Award Winning Journalism

Hello! I’m LiAnne Yu.

I focus on Asia Pacific + West Coast consumer culture, tech and climate, and I’ve written for the New York Times and Hawaii Business Magazine.

My work has received several national and regional awards from the Society of Professional Journalists and the Alliance of Area Business Publishers:

I’m also the author of Consumption in China: How China’s new consumer ideology is shaping the nation (Polity 2014), which has been reviewed by Foreign Affairs as well as the London School of Economics.

You can find my literary work at Anthrolicious, and my activism pieces at Writing the Resistance.
