      ab: The writer explores the story of Deng Pufang—the eldest son of Deng Xiaoping, one of the top government leaders in China in the 20th century—who was instrumental in launching in 1988 the China Disabled Persons' Federation, the country's first nationwide organization for the disabled. By fusing Foucault's research on subjectivity with contemporary Chinese insights regarding narrativity, he argues that specific discursive techniques unique to post-Mao China enabled what Foucault would term the subjectification of Deng Pufang to become a discursive force that resulted in the emergence of a new biobureaucracy, in the form of the disabled persons' federation.
