Arianne Gaetano is a cultural anthropologist. Her research focuses on contemporary Chinese society. She has spent several years studying language and conducting ethnographic fieldwork in China. Her 2015 book, Out to Work: Migration, Gender, and the Changing Lives of Rural Women in Contemporary China is about the experiences and consequences of internal migration on rural Chinese women's lived experiences and life course trajectories, based on a decade of ethnographic fieldwork in Beijing and China's countryside.
