Download or read book The Hong Kong Region 1850-1911 written by James Hayes and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1977, The Hong Kong Region is a historical reconstruction of long-settled village and township society in Hong Kong's New Territories between 1850 and 1911. The book's central argument is that the gentry and bureaucracy played almost no role in these communities, which were run by local peasants and shopkeepers who had to deal virtually unaided with routine administration and with every form of disaster, natural or man-made. A substantial new introduction reviews the research and its wider implications for our understanding of traditional Chinese society in the light of later scholarly studies.

Download or read book Women and Chinese Patriarchy written by Maria Jaschok and published by Zed Books. This book was released on 1994 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection reveals many forms of servitude that Chinese women have endured, and the avenues of escape open to some of them. The authors are anthropologists, historians and sociologists, but the book is enriched also by contributions from the participants - a social worker, a mui tsai, and a colonial civil servant. The chapters are based on original documentary or oral research and personal experience, and, throughout the book, the voices of the women, their owners and their missionary rescuers can be clearly heard.

Download or read book A Pattern of Life—Essays on Rural Hong Kong by James Hayes written by Hugh D.R. Baker and published by City University of HK Press. This book was released on 2021-02-13 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “For myself, however, it is the human element, the recollected words, the remembered faces, which give life to the printed record.” James Hayes’s many writings have made a major contribution to knowledge about life in rural Hong Kong. This book presents sixteen of his illuminating and original articles, each of which is rooted in his experiences as a district officer, administering and visiting villages under his care. His interest in the life and lives of the people went far beyond the formal demands of his official work, and Dr Hayes grew to admire and respect the villagers. As a result, his writings are suffused with his affection and esteem. Intended for scholars in the field of New Territories history as well as general readers interested in rural life in the region, A Pattern of Life provides a fascinating, academically important, yet highly readable picture of traditional life in rural South China and reinforces Dr Hayes’s reputation as one of the most important writers on the New Territories. “[James was] the archetypical example of those remarkable Colonial Service officers who became fascinated by, and deeply engaged with, the territories and people which it was their task to administer.” – Lord Wilson of Tillyorn Governor of Hong Kong (1987–1992)

Download or read book Making Hong Kong written by Pui-yin Ho and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-28 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This insightful book provides a comprehensive survey of urban development in Hong Kong since 1841. Pui-yin Ho explores the ways in which the social, economic and political environments of different eras have influenced the city's development. From colonial governance, wartime experiences, high density development and the return to Chinese sovereignty in 1997 through to contemporary challenges, this book explores forward-looking ideas that urban planning can offer to lead the city in the future. Evaluating the relationship between town planning and social change, this book looks at how a local Hong Kong identity emerged in the face of conflict and compromise between Chinese and European cultures. In doing so, it brings a fresh perspective to urban research, providing historical context and direction for the future development of the city. Hong Kong's urban development experience offers not only a model for other Chinese cities but also a better understanding of Asian cities more broadly.Urban studies scholars will find this an exemplary case study of a developing urban landscape. Town planners and architects will also benefit from reading this comprehensive book as it shows how Hong Kong can be taken to the next stage of urban development and modernisation.
