Zheng’s research focuses on architectural heritage through the lens of politics, social dynamics, and cultural influences, employing historical anthropology. Her groundbreaking work on Fujian Tulou reinterprets the social history of this unique building form, earning her recognition in Canada, the USA, and Hong Kong. Her publications span journals in China, Taiwan, the USA, and Japan.
