Discriminatory Zoning in Colonial Hong Kong: a R Eview of the Post-War Literature and Some F Ur Ther Evidence F Or an Economic Theor Y of Discr Imination Abstract
Discriminatory Zoning in Colonial Hong Kong: A r eview of the post-war literature and some f ur ther evidence f or an economic theor y of discr imination Abstract TYPE OF PAPER: RESEARCH PAPER STRUCTURED ABSTRACT Purpose: This paper argues that racially discriminatory zoning in Colonial Hong Kong could have been a form of protectionism driven by economic considerations. Design/Methodology/Approach: This paper was based on a review of the relevant ordinances, literature, and public information, notably data obtained from the Land Registry and telephone directories. Findings: This paper reveals that many writings on racial matters in Hong Kong were not a correct interpretation or presentation of facts. It shows that after the repeal of the discriminatory laws in 1946r, an increasing number of people, both Chinese and European, were living in the Peak district. Besides, Chinese were found to be acquiring land even under the discriminatory law for Barker Road during the mid-1920s and became, after 1946, the majority landlords by the mid-1970s. This testifies to the argument that the Chinese could compete economically with Europeans for prime residential premises in Hong Kong. Research Implications: This paper lends further support to the Lawrence-Marco proposition raised in Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design by Lai and Yu (2001), which regards segregation zoning as a means to reduce the effective demand of an economically resourceful social group. Practical Implications: This paper shows how title documents for land and telephone directories can be used to measure the degree of racial segregation. Originality/Value: This paper is the first attempt to systematically re-interpret English literature on racially discriminatory zoning in Hong Kong’s Peak area using reliable public information from Crown Leases and telephone directories. -
Palaeozoic Rocks of the San Tin Group Classification and Distribution
PalaeozoicRocks of the San Tin Group Classification and Distribution The sedimenmryrocks of this Palaeozoicbasin (the San Tin Group) occupy a northeasterly,curving, faulted, irregular belt at least 25 km long and up to a maximum of 4 km in width. This fault-bounded basinextends northwards into Shenzhenand Guangdong,and south throughTuen Mun. Bennett (1984c) outlined the basic structureof the areaas a narrow grabenbetween the CastlePeak and the Sung Kong granites,and noted the presenceof metasedimenmryrocks of the Repulse Bay Formation and the Lok Ma ChauFormation. The San Tin Group is divided into two formations; a lower, largely calcareousYuen Long Formation, and an upper, mostly arenaceous/argillaceousLok Ma ChauFormation (Langford et ai, 1989)(Figure5). Yuen Long Formation The Yuen Long Fonnation was named by Lee (1985) to distinguish the concealed marbles and limestonesof the Yuen Long area from the better known clastic rocks belonging to the establishedand exposed Lok Ma Chau Fonnation (Bennett, 1984b). The distinctive carbonate lithologies were originally recognised by Ha et al (1981), who suggested that they probably belonged to the CarboniferousPeriod. General supportfor a Carboniferousage was provided by the strike of the rocks which could be traced northeastwardsinto Shenzhen,where unpublished1:50 000 geologicalmapping of the Shenzhen,Special Economic Zone apparently showed similar lithologies classified as Lower Carboniferous(Visean) (Lai & Mui, 1985). The Yuen Long Fonnation is overlain by the Lok Ma Chau Fonnation. The boundary betweenthe two fonnations is in places gradationalbut in others sharp and probably unconfonnable.The presenceof beds of marble intercalatedwith the lowest metasiltstonesin someboreholes is interpretedby Langford et al (1989) to be a gradual passagefrom a dominantly calcareoussequence to one of largely clastic material. -
