商品簡介 |
It used to be common practice to begin a history of Hong Kong by saying that before the Opium War, Hong Kong was a fishing village, and that after it became a colony, the combined efforts of the colonial government and the predominantly Chinese population built it into a great city. Nowadays, we know that both halves of this statement are problematic.
Inasmuch as History has to be about decisions and their consequences, the attempt to portray Hong Kong history as the result of consensus politics was fundamentally dishonest and politically distracting. Hong Kong history, therefore, has to be rewritten so that it faces its colonial past head on. It does that by discovering the circumstances in which a historical view of society became dominant, whatproblems were hidden within such a view, and how the sentiments it served were sustained.
