"England empowers the subaltern, recentring the Eurasian community as a key source of power and influence in late 19th and early 20th century Hong Kong." chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
Welcome back, @transit_jam !
`Any official acknowledgement of #HongKong’s unique history,' says @antd, 'seems unlikely when the ruling party of the nation state of which it forms a part regards any independent sense of identity as an existential threat' chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
"It is perhaps trite to say that a book of history helps us to understand the present. Yet this work gains greater urgency because it cuts against an ethno-nationalist narrative already ascendent in mainland China." Excellent book review essay by @antd: chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
"Notwithstanding the obvious evils of colonialism, the PRC narrative never sat comfortably with the millions of Chinese who had sought refuge in the British-administered city…from the Taiping Rebellion…through to…the Cultural Revolution." @antd chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
Excellent wide ranging essay by @antd, focuses on Vaudine England’s engaging new history of Hong Kong; good attention to how it fits into larger lit on the city, reviewer argues it both illuminates the past & helps us think about recent tragedies chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…

Quite an extraordinary slur on the legal profession from HK’s secretary for justice:

Whenever people ask me what are some of the “canaries in the coalmine” to assess the health of HK’s rule of law I always point to judicial appointments as a key area to watch. On that topic, here is @pakwayne for @NikkeiAsia:

@LWestwoodAuthor Yes, makes me want to read it.
Great review!
"In-Between City" Hong Kong has been caught between empires — and narratives — for almost two centuries. The diversity of its early migrants made the city what it is today. But that is changing. Read @antd's review-essay: chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
"In the face of an ethno-nationalist narrative ascendent in mainland China, England’s account reminds us that Hong Kong is different from China." chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
Really good @antd review of a new HK history: “England’s account reminds us that HK is different from China, “because it has lived a different history, it is made of different peoples, their lives over generations have forged a different place.” chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
"It is perhaps trite to say that a book of history helps us to understand the present. Yet this work gains greater urgency because it cuts against an ethno-nationalist narrative already ascendent in mainland China." Excellent book review essay by @antd: chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
"Notwithstanding the obvious evils of colonialism, the PRC narrative never sat comfortably with the millions of Chinese who had sought refuge in the British-administered city…from the Taiping Rebellion…through to…the Cultural Revolution." @antd chinabooksreview.com/2024/04/04/in-…
"England’s account reminds us that Hong Kong *is* different from China, 'because it has lived a different history, it is made of different peoples, and their lives over generations have forged a different place.'" I must now read this book.
I review Vaudine England’s “Fortune’s Bazaar” — a history of Hong Kong centered on its ethnic minority communities — for @chinabksreview
