商品簡介
Through detailed ethnographic portraits, Mathews reveals a world of globalization based on informality, reputation, and trust rather than on formal contracts. How, he asks, can such informal relationships emerge between two groups―Chinese and sub-Saharan Africans―that don’t share a common language, culture, or religion? And what happens when Africans move beyond their status as temporary residents and begin to put down roots and establish families?
Full of unforgettable characters, The World in Guangzhou presents a compelling account of globalization at ground level and offers a look into the future of urban life as transnational connections continue to remake cities around the world.
作者簡介
名人/編輯推薦
“I continue to be impressed by Mathews’s combination of a long, skillful build-up of local knowledge with a great sense of how to communicate with a wide readership. To understand Guangzhou and the human face of low-end globalization is to understand a lot about today’s world.” ―Ulf Hannerz, author of Writing Future Worlds: An Anthropologist Explores Global Scenarios
