Overview
\"In Found in Transition, Yiu-Wai Chu provides a critical examination of the fate of Hong Kong's unique cultural identity in the contexts of both global capitalism and increasing influence of China. Drawing on recent developments in Hong Kong, especially with respect to language and education, movies and popular songs as modes of resistance to \"Mainlandization,\" and different forms of censorship, this book offers an intelligent guide to connect and make sense of the various debates and conundrums facing Hong Kong shortly before and after the twentieth anniversary of its reversion to China as a Special Administrative Region. Highlighting locality and hybridity along postcolonial lines of interpretation, this book will contribute to the important fields of Hong Kong and China Studies. It is also an attempt to imagine the future of Hong Kong by underlining Hong Kong studies as a method. Chu argues that the study of Hong Kong, where the impact of the rise of China is most intensely felt, can also shed light on emergent crises in different areas of the world. As such this book constitutes not only a consequential follow-up to the author's Lost in Transition, but also a valuable contribution to international, area, and cultural studies\"-- Provided by publisher.
