The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe 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, representa tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

Academic Freedom in Hong Kong Since 2015: Between Two Systems
Academic Freedom in Hong Kong since 2015: Between Two Systems Kevin Carrico January 2018 Hong Kong Watch Academic Freedom in Hong Kong 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The state of academic freedom in Hong Kong is a microcosm of the state of “one country, two systems” as a whole. It is alive, and generally well, but only due to constant public vigilance against growing threats. Hong Kong’s students and scholars played a central role in the 2014 Occupy protests for political reform. As a result, since early 2015, a growing top-down backlash has attempted to limit academic freedom and bring academia under the authorities’ control. This post-Occupy retribution is manifested in the following trends: • Controversial academic figures have been removed from their posts, seen promotions blocked, or faced extra-legal campaigns to pressure their removal. These were all driven by political motivations. • State-appointed and politically connected figures have governed universities in a manner divorced from the will of students and faculty. • There is a growing push to place limits on freedom of speech, without any legal basis. Although academic work in Hong Kong remains considerably freer than in the rest of the People’s Republic of China, these trends suggest that elements of academic control in place elsewhere in China are gradually being incorporated into the Hong Kong system, threatening the city’s academic freedom and thus its universities’ reputations. POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS • Educators must directly and openly confront “taboo” topics in Hong Kong, or run the risk of enabling a censorship regime that will continually expand, swallowing up new topics as forbidden. -
