Hybrid Hong Kong
ISBN: 9780415695541 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Hybrid Hong Kong attempts to attract and excite the intellectual, cultural, economic and political elites as well as the intelligent laymen of Hong Kong - hopefully enough for them to take a closer look at their society - while engendering a public discourse on the city's identity, its past, present and future. Hong Kong is at its crossroads. With a colonial past and having been handed over, and back, to China in 1997, the city has since been going through a process of re-sinification and re-integration (not entirely wanted) into the Pearl River Delta region of mainland China, all of which...

Coping with a Spoiled Self
ISBN: 9783639146455 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Despite the increasing concern over Asian delinquency in Canada, there is a paucity of research in this area. This book reports a qualitative study on the experiences of Asian youth in the criminal justice system. Analyses support that negative self image is one of the key factors for offending. Contrary to general belief, leaving an Asian youth gang is less difficult than anticipated and these youth are committed to conventional norms of society regardless of their level of criminal involvement. These analyses inform policy makers and provide practical information for social workers,...

ISBN: 9783030409654 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This insightful volume explores the experiences of ethnic migrants returning to Hong Kong, Singapore, and Israel. Return migrants who were exposed to the western culture and society undergo personal transformations that significantly impact their views on values such as gender, individualism, democracy, tradition, and individual autonomy. To evaluate how well these individuals are able to reintegrate back into their native countries, the authors conducted a thorough comparative study between returnees in the three research sites through in-depth interviews, ethnographic fieldwork, and...

Migration, Ethnic Relations and Chinese Business
ISBN: 9780415814218 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Incorporating research carried out over the last twenty years, this book documents the personal and collective responses of Chinese migrants and refugees to the prejudice and discrimination they have experienced. Using case studies of Chinese communities in Canada, Chan explores the different defence mechanisms Chinese migrants have created in order to escape the systemic and institutionalized discrimination they face. In particular, the book analyzes Chinese entrepreneurship, arguing that it is a collective response to blocked opportunities in host societies. Drawing upon empirical and...

Cultural Hybridity : Contradictions and Dilemmas
ISBN: 9780415697989 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book brings together a group of scholars from diverse disciplines to interrogate everyday life events in various interpersonal and organizational contexts so as to answer an age-old question: what happens when (carriers of) cultures meet, or, when East meets West? The contributors to this volume argue that, rather than assume clashes of civilizations, assimilation, conversion and essentialism to be the expected outcomes of cultural encounters, we should focus our analytical attention on processes rather than outcomes; on emergence, dialectics, contradictions, ironies and paradoxes, and...

ISBN: 9780415369299 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 169 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Drawing upon wide-ranging case study material, the book explores the ever-changing personal and cultural identity of Chinese migrants and the diverse cosmopolitan communities they create. The various models of newly-forged communities are examined with the added dimension of personal identity and the individual's place in society. With particular emphasis on the changing face of Chinese ethnicity in a range of established places of convergence, Chan draws on extensive experience and knowledge in the field to bring the reader a fresh, fascinating and ultimately very human analysis...

East-West Identities: Globalization, Localization, and Hybridization
ISBN: 9789004151697 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While the economic forces shaping globalization are powerful and seemingly getting stronger, they are not immutable, nor are their effects predictable or necessarily overwhelming. Contributors to this book are optimistic that the socio-cultural formations of the future, such as cultural hybridity and cosmopolitanism, will be a viable option for constructing new or renewed global communities of migrants around the world. It is with these tools that migrants are best equipped to navigate the raging torrents of globalization in the new millennium of a post-postmodern era. Globalization brings...
