Spanning decades of rural-urban divide, it finally uncovers China's global reach and Hong Kong's cross-border dynamics. Helen Siu traverses physical and cultural landscapes to examine political tumults transforming into everyday lives, and fathom the depths of human drama amid China's frenetic momentum toward modernity. Highlighting complicity, Siu portrays how villagers, ubanites, cadres, entrepreneurs, and intellectual -- laden with historical baggage--venture forward. But have they victimized themselves in the process? -- back cover. 651 0 $a China, Southeast $x Civilization. 651 0 $a Hong Kong (China) $x Civilization. 650 0 $a Ethnology $z China, Southeast. 650 0 $a Ethnology $z Hong Kong. $z Hong Kong. 650 0 $a Rural-urban relations $z China, Southeast. 650 0 $a Rural-urban relations $z Hong Kong. $z Hong Kong. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20170203031309.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9954C664E9E711E69A6025A3DAD10320 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
