An Anthropological Study of Ethnicity and the Reproduction of Culture In London School of Economics and Political Science An anthropological study of ethnicity and the reproduction of culture among Hong Kong Chinese families in Scotland Eona Margaret Bell A thesis submitted to the Department of Anthropology of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy London, October 2011 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 81,554 words. 2 Abstract This thesis is about inter-generational relationships and the reproduction of culture in the family lives of Hong Kong Chinese people in Scotland. It is based on fifteen months of ethnographic fieldwork and informal interviews in family homes, Chinese language schools and community organizations in Edinburgh. A central question is that of ethnicity and how people learn to “be ethnic” while living in a Western, multicultural society. The first part asks what Scottish-born Chinese children learn about ethnicity through growing up in families who work in the ethnic catering trade. Chapter 1 introduces the themes of ambition and achievement, and the mixed emotions associated with this sometimes-stigmatized occupation. Chapter 2 focuses on ideas about the duties of parents, drawing on life stories of three generations of Chinese Scots to describe their decisions concerning childcare and schooling. The second section concerns the learning of specific cultural practices – language and handicrafts – in the institutional context of Chinese complementary schools. Chapters 3 and 4 show that these are important spaces where people feel part of a group with shared moral responsibility for the maintenance and transmission of culture. The question of “authenticity” in both cultural practice and interpersonal relationships is discussed. Chapters 5 and 6 explore how Hong Kong Chinese Scots are responding to the rise of China as a global economic and cultural power. Ethnographic data from Chinese New Year celebrations in Edinburgh, and Mandarin language classes for Cantonese-speaking children suggest that people may engage in “inauthentic” cultural practices for strategic economic or political reasons. However, these articulations of ethnic identity are also important for the nurture of inter-generational relationships. The thesis concludes with the argument that Chinese Scots take a future- orientated approach to family and community life, drawing selectively on the resources of inter-ethnic ties and language to prepare their children for a changing economic and social environment. 3 Contents Contents ........................................................................................... 4 Acknowledgements ........................................................................... 6 Note on transliteration of Chinese terms ........................................... 7 Introduction ...................................................................................... 8 Ethnicity, multiculturalism and groups................................................................... 12 Cultural reproduction in families ............................................................................ 18 The rise of individualism in Chinese society .......................................................... 23 Chinese people in Scotland ..................................................................................... 29 Census data ............................................................................................................. 29 Studying Hong Kong Chinese people in Edinburgh............................................... 33 Scotland as a setting for research ............................................................................ 43 Part 1 Reproducing culture in families ............................................ 49 Chapter 1 Getting away from the takeaway: stigma and pride in the ethnic catering trade ....................................................................... 50 Chinese caterers in the British class system ........................................................... 56 Hierarchy and class in the Edinburgh Chinese catering trade ................................ 59 Choosing to work in a restaurant ............................................................................ 63 Chain migration and the matter of trust .................................................................. 64 Insiders and outsiders ............................................................................................. 68 Conclusion .............................................................................................................. 69 Chapter 2 Tiger mothers with feather dusters?

It was subsequently extended by the Human Rights Council, most recently in its resolution 34/6. In the present report, in addition to giving an overview of his activities, the Special Rapporteur tackles the issue of statelessness and explores why most of the world’s more than 10 million men, women and children who find themselves deprived of citizenship are persons belonging to national or ethnic, religious and linguistic minorities. The Special Rapporteur presents the underlying causes and patterns that result in millions of minorities around the world losing or being denied citizenship out of all proportion. First, he investigates how and why certain minorities find themselves particularly affected, and even at times specifically targeted, by legislation, policies and practices contributing to or resulting in statelessness.

  • Transnational Migration and Work in Asia
    Transnational Migration and Work in Asia Migration, especially for work, is a major issue for the twenty-first century. International organizations estimate that there are some 100 million migrant workers, immigrants and members of immigrant families worldwide, with at least seven million of these residing in South and East Asia. Focusing on the issues associated with migrating for work both in and from the Asian region, Transnational Migration and Work in Asia sheds new light on the debate over migration – increasing our understanding and awareness of this important issue. The first of its kind to look at the non-professionals who make up the vast majority of migrant workers in the Asian region, this book provides a broad perspective with case studies on migrants in and from Thailand, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Nepal, Laos, Burma, Japan, China and the Philippines. These in-depth studies strive to examine the motivations and rationalities of migrant workers as they navigate their way from local communities to their position in the global network. Equally those intermediaries who seek to profit from the transnational flow of migrant workers such as recruitment agents, labour brokers, money lenders, traffickers and remittance agencies are analysed as labour becomes increasingly commodified and traded internationally. With contributions from an international team of well-known scholars, the book sets labour migration firmly within the context of globalization, providing a focused, contemporary discussion of what is undoubtedly a significant issue in today’s world. Kevin Hewison is Director of the Carolina Asia Center and Professor in the Department of Asian Studies, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
