A Chinese Melting Pot: Original People and Immigrants in Hong Kong’s First ‘New Town’
内容简介:Drawing on almost fifty years of research and first-hand experience, the authors have produced a masterpiece of ethnography, a fine-grained study of the transformation of Tsuen Wan, a rural district into a chaotic industrial—and now post-industrial—city. Their work has implications far beyond its specific location; scholars of history, anthropology and sociology, urban planning, ethnomusicology, women’s studies, political science, ethnic relations, and China studies will all find it meaningful.
