  • The Future Herbal Tea Shops in Hong Kong
    HONG KONG The Anthropology of a Chinese Metropolis ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Published by Curzon Press and University ofHawai'i Press Series editor Grant Evans University ofHong Kong Asia today is one of the most dynamic regions of the world. The previously predominant image of'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representations, arts and performance. The complexities ofurban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored Dangerous Blood, Refined Souls Death Rituals among the Chinese in Singapore Tong Chee Kiong Anthropology and Colonialism in Asia Reflections on the Japanese, Dutch, Chinese, and Indian Experiences Edited by Jan van Bremen and Akitoshi Shimizu Folk Art Potters of Japan Beyond an Anthropology ofAesthetics Brian Moeran HONG KONG The Anthropology of a Chinese Metropolis Edited by Grant Evans and Maria Tam UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I PRESS HONOLULU Published in North America by University of Hawai'i Press 2840 Kolowalu Street Honolulu, Hawai'i 96822 First published in 1997 by Curzon Press 15 The Quadrant, Richmond Surrey, TW9 lBP © 1997 G.

  • Hong Kong, China: Learning to Belong to a Nation
    Downloaded by [ISTEX] at 03:47 06 September 2013 Hong Kong, China The idea of “national identity” is an ambiguous one for Hong Kong. Returned to the national embrace of China on 1 July 1997 after 150 years as a British colony, the concept of national identity and what it means to “belong to a nation” is a matter of great tension and contestation in Hong Kong. Written by three academic specialists on cultural identity, social history, and the mass media, this book explores the processes through which the people of Hong Kong are “learning to belong to a nation” by examining their shifting rela- tionship with the Chinese nation and state in the recent past, present, and future. It considers the complex meanings of and debates over national identity in Hong Kong over the past fifty years, especially during the last decade following the territory’s return to China. In doing so, the book takes a larger, global perspect- ive, exploring what Hong Kong teaches us about potential future transforma- tions of national identity in the world as a whole. Multidisciplinary in approach, Hong Kong, China examines national identity in terms of theory, ethnography, history, the mass media, and survey data, and will appeal to students and scholars of Chinese history, cultural studies, and nationalism.

It has given us a unique chance to work on this important project, examining the relationship between Canada and China during the past forty years. With the exception of the relationship with the United States, Canada’s relationship with China is likely to be its most signifi cant foreign connection in the 21st century. In that light, this book has the potential both to be very useful to those studying the relation- ship and to make an important impact on policy-makers in both countries.

  • Teaching the Vietnamese Boat People's Hong Kong Passage
    ariel: a review of international english literature Vol. 46 No. 1–2 Pages 239–255 Copyright © 2015 Th e Johns Hopkins University Press and the University of Calgary Buried History and Transpacific Pedagogy: Teaching the Vietnamese Boat People’s Hong Kong Passage Y-Dang Troeung Abstract: Hong Kong received 223,302 Vietnamese “Boat People” beginning on May 3, 1975. Th e last camp in Hong Kong, Pillar Point refugee camp, was offi cially closed on May 31st, 2000, over 25 years after the end of the Vietnam War. Th e residuals of this violent past continue to haunt the collective memory of the Vietnamese in the diaspora, yet the Boat People’s “Asian pas- sage” remains an untold chapter of Hong Kong’s national history. Exploring the complex relationship between global compassion fatigue, the camp state of exception, and storytelling as a refugee tactic, Vietnamese American writer Andrew Lam’s “Th e Stories Th ey Carried” recounts the experience of Vietnamese refugees abandoned in Hong Kong throughout the 1980s and 1990s, in extra-territorial limbo between Vietnam and the West. Th is paper will discuss the experience of teaching Lam’s story to students in the local Hong Kong context, where refugee and asylum seeking policy continues to be a highly charged political topic. I consider the ways in which Lam’s text bears pedagogical resonance across the Pacifi c, arguing that the teaching of this piece constitutes the remembering of a missing chapter in both the Vietnamese American narrative and the history of Hong Kong. Keywords: Asian American literature; Vietnam war; refugees; Hong Kong; pedagogy Due to its geographical location by the South China Sea and its colo- nial port city status, Hong Kong received 223,302 Vietnamese “Boat 239 Y-Dang Troeung People” beginning on May 3, 1975.1 While the Hong Kong govern- ment initially set up open camps allowing Vietnamese refugees the free- dom to temporarily work outside the camps, by 1982 the government held these refugees in closed centers such as converted factories, military sites, and prisons.
