1975–1984: the decade leading up to the signing of the Sino British Joint Declaration witnessed the rise of China from an isolated country to a serious economic player on the world stage and the decline of the British empire. Torn between the two was Hong Kong, a stable and prosperous British colony with an almost wholly Chinese population, a city world renowned for money-making with little interest in politics. What would be Hong Kong’s fate after 1997? At times astute and uncannily prescient, at other times wildly imaginative, Lam Hang-chi’s daily editorials in the Hong Kong Economic Journal analysed and conjectured Hong Kong’s options at the time. His opinion sparked debates and frequently provided a focal point for the discussion on Hong Kong’s future; His views on housing, assimilating immigrants, the collusion of politics and business, issues that are foremost in Hong Kong today, still inform. For the first time, they are made available in English. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

China’s ascent to the ranks of the world’s second largest economic power has given its revolution a better image than that of its Russian counterpart. Yet the two have a great deal in common. Indeed, the Chinese revolution was a carbon copy of its predecessor, until Mao became aware, not so much of the failures of the Russian model, but of its inability to adapt to an overcrowded third-world country. Yet, instead of correcting that model, Mao decided to go further and faster in the same direction. The aftershock of an earthquake may be weaker, but the Great Leap Forward of 1958 in China was far more destructive than the Great Turn of 1929 in the Soviet Union. It was conceived with an idealistic end but failed to take all the possibilities into account. China’s development only took off after—and thanks to—Mao’s death, once the country turned its back on the revolution. Lucien Bianco’s original comparative study highlights the similarities: the all-powerful bureaucracy; the over-explo

經濟學大師 熊彼得、海耶克 大力推崇的經濟學經典—— 這本150年前的經典著作告訴我們：為什麼政府常犯錯、為什麼法律不正義，什麼才是健全的經濟邏輯。 本書的作者巴斯夏（Frederic Bastiat）是十九世紀的法國經濟學家、政治家。 經濟學大師熊彼得（Joseph Schumpeter）稱讚巴斯夏是「有史以來最出色的經濟新聞記者」。 海耶克（F.A. Hayek）稱他是「政治經濟評論的天才」。 在〈看得見與看不見的〉（That Which Is Seen and That Which Is Not Seen）這篇文章中，巴斯夏以一個小孩打破了玻璃窗為例，說明一個行為或政策，即使在當下有看得見的結果（通常是某種利益），也可能有看不見的後果（通常是某種傷害）。然而，每當政府推行新政策，往往只看到「看得見」的部分、忽略了「看不見」的部分，或是只看到短期效應、忽略了長期效應，而導致政策失敗、人民受害，造成種種不公。 以破窗戶的寓言為開端，所探討的主題包括：課稅、政府補助（產業、藝文活動、教育）、公共建設、公務員、貿易保護主義、就業問題、節儉的矛盾等等。 這篇文章寫於1850年，但直到今天，仍持續發揮影響力。作者著書立說，大力宣揚經濟自由、私有產權、人權的理念，以及為何應該採取自由貿易，並且節制政府的權力。在他辭世百年之後，重新又開始被人們討論，知名經濟作家亨利．赫茲利特（Henry Hazlitt）就是受到這篇文章的啟發，而寫出經典之作《一課經濟學》。其中的破窗戶寓言，首次提出「機會成本」的概念，雖然要到五十年後這個名詞才被確定下來。 在另一篇名作〈論法律〉（The Law）當中，巴斯夏批評當時盛行的社會主義思想，說明政府施政不是萬靈丹，政府只應該具有「有限的」功能——保護人民的生命、自由、財產安全，它不能什麼都做。利益團體常常藉由法律，掠奪平民百姓的財產，這就是「合法掠奪」，也就是所謂「五鬼搬運法」。作者說： 「法律有時會與掠奪者站在一起，甚至會親自進行掠奪，好讓受惠者免於羞恥、危險與良心不安。」 「我們這個時代盛行著一種幻覺，以為透過彼此犧牲一些利益可以造福所有的階級——以法律為幌子，實際上進行的卻是全面掠奪。」 「法律會被誤用，主要有兩個原因：不智的自私，和錯誤的博愛。」 最後一篇文章〈蠟燭製造商的請願書〉（The Candlemakers P

As we present in one book the poems of thirty poets who had helped to shape modern China, we anticipate readers to find the contents rich, revealing and meaningful. Our readers will see from the words of the poets a clear view of who is what, and identify wise decisions from selfish mistakes. They will then understand history in human dynamic terms.

China stands as a major “Red Swan” challenge to the social sciences. The resilience of the Communist party-state, in combination with a rapidly expanding and internationally competitive economy, challenges conventional models of economic development and political change. This book focuses on crucial governmental action programs and examines the manner in which they were developed, formulated, implemented, adjusted, and revised. It finds that Chinese policy making has been driven by a distinctive political methodology—an unusual combination of long-term national agendas with versatile local policy experimentation—that serves as an effective mechanism for policy innovation and correction, and thus provides strong adaptive capabilities in a perpetually shifting economic, technological and international context. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ An original and persuasive book by one of the leading scholars of China’s policy-making process. The paradox of China’s successful market reforms is that they wer

Previous collections of photographs illustrating the lost world of Old Hong Kong have tended to focus exclusively on black-and-white images from before the Second World War. In this new collection of photographs from the period 1948-1969, Otto Lam has instead selected a dazzling array of images in glorious full colour, most of them taken by overseas visitors to Hong Kong, including some of the earliest surviving colour views of the city and its environs. These evocative images demonstrate what a vibrant place Hong Kong was during this crucial period in the colony's rapid economic growth and modernisation. This volume, covering a wide range of images from daily life in post-war Hong Kong, comes at a time when a new generation of citizens is taking a greater interest in the rich and largely intangible heritage of their city.

In a career of public service spanning 30 years, Dr. Leong Che-hung had always been there when Hong Kong people needed him. His faith in serving his own people had taken him from the operating theatre to the Executive Council and Legislative Council representing the medical constituency, and he was successively appointed as the Chairman of the Hospital Authority, the HKU Council and the Elderly Commission, among others. Now, for the first time, Dr. Leong uses each phase of his professional and public career as a spur to reflect on what makes Hong Kong tick. Opinionated, perceptive and often prescient, he tells the inside stories of the city’s most challenging health care crisis and most treasured medical triumphs. Throughout the book, he thinks passionately about many pressing issues facing Hong Kong, and why they are not only challenges but also opportunities. In the end, this is a book more about the history and future of Hong Kong than the life of one of its inhabitants.

This publication accompanies an unprecedented exhibition highlighting four of the magnificent chinoiserie tapestries of Chinese Emperor Qianlong, woven after designs by François Boucher at the famous Beauvais manufactory from 1758–1760. The large and well-preserved textiles form part of the royal French commission by King Louis XV, objects of which were presented to Qianlong in 1766. These celebrated tapestries are joined by another historic set of culturally related depictions in print—The Battles of the Emperor of China. The engravings were ordered by Qianlong, drawn by Jesuit painters at the Imperial Court in Beijing and then printed in Paris 1769–1774. The ‘culture’ of these prints follows King Louis XIV’s influential images of the Histoire du Roi and presents Qianlong as both a war hero and as the undisputed leader of China in the mid-eighteenth century. These depictions date to the exact same time period, one that coincides with the high demand for chinoiserie in France—culmina

Chinese-speaking popular cultures have never been so queer in this digital, globalist age. The title of this pioneering volume, Boys’ Love, Cosplay, and Androgynous Idols: Queer Fan Cultures in Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan already gives an idea of the colorful, multifaceted realms the fans inhabit today. Contributors to this collection situate the proliferation of (often online) queer representations, productions, fantasies, and desires as a reaction against the norms in discourses surrounding nation-states, linguistics, geopolitics, genders, and sexualities. Moving beyond the easy polarities between general resistance and capitulation, Queer Fan Cultures explores the fans’ diverse strategies in negotiating with cultural strictures and media censorship. It further outlines the performance of subjectivity, identity, and agency that cyberspace offers to female fans. Presenting a wide array of concrete case studies of queer fandoms in Chinese-speaking contexts, the essays in this

This book uncovers the history of intellectual and social activism in China through the development of late 19th and early 20th century study societies against the context of the decline of the Qing government, widespread social unrest, and the encroachment of Western imperialism. The study societies in Beijing, Hunan, Shanghai and elsewhere were organized around the goal of defending and reinventing Chinese civilization in reaction to the cultural and political hegemony of the modern nation-state. “This work is an original and convincing piece of research. It offers a new lens through which we can examine the fundamental shifts of the late Qing period. Focusing on a new institution—study societies, Professor Chen reinterprets it to explain the process that lay at the foundation of modern Chinese state-making under conditions of military defeat and imperialist threat. He gives us an innovative and challenging approach to historical sociology with a culturalist bent and a fair amoun

This edited volume seeks to highlight the development of play therapy in various countries and cities in Asia.

Its creation was anything but straightforward, and in this can be seen the mutable and often tortuous relations between the various religious bodies, the local population, the transient sailors, the emerging captains of industry, and the growing regulatory reach of the colonial government. The club evolved through many embodiments and witnessed the growth of Hong Kong from a collection of mat-sheds on the foreshore, through colony to its current status. Throughout its turbulent past it has been occasionally marginalized but has always served as an important base for the key actors in the main commercial activity in Hong Kong: seafarers. This is a history of one of the most enduring institutions of Hong Kong, and the first of its kind. Using the Club’s own records as well as a wide rang

This book is an attempt to clarify the history of San On County — the broader Hong Kong area — centring on the troubled years of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It is based on an in-depth study of the San On County Gazetteer, which allows for a detailed discussion of the role, attitudes, and personalities of the San On magistrates, who were the heads of the county administration during this period. Particular focus is given to Zhou Xiyao (magistrate 1640–1644) and Li Kecheng (magistrate 1670–1675). The study finds that they, and at least some of the other magistrates of this period, were genuinely concerned about the county and its people, and tried as best they could to provide good and effective government for them.

This study tests the factors of transaction costs (TC) and resource-based views (RBV) to explain the MNEs’ entry decisions in China. By using large firm-level data from China, I show in this paper that variables related to internal uncertainty (e.g., management) and firm-specific assets tend to affect MNEs’ entry decisions in a way that is consistent with the transaction cost logic; that is, the higher degree of internal uncertainty, the MNEs may require more control over the foreign facilities or the JV. On the other hand, those variables related to external uncertainty (e.g., marketing) and intangible assets tend to conform to the resource-based view, which means higher external uncertainty would cause the MNEs to leverage the resources or local experience of local partners. This suggests that MNEs may need complementary resources from local partners to reduce the external uncertainty and enhance the value of their intangible resources.
