    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.
