Product Description

This book traces the evolution of the Hong Kongs popular culture, namely film, television and popular music (also known as Cantopop), which is knotted with the citys geo-political, economic and social transformations. Under various historical contingencies and due to the citys special geo-politics, these three major popular cultural forms have experienced various worlding processes and have generated border-crossing impact culturally and socially. The worlding processes are greatly associated the citys nature as a reception and departure port to Sinophone migrants and populations of multiethnic and multicultural. Reaching beyond the golden age (1980s) of Hong Kong popular culture and afar from a film-centric cultural narration, this book, delineating from the dawn of the 20th century and following a chronological order, untangles how the nowadays popular Hong Kong film, Hong Kong TV and Cantopop are derived from early-age Sinophone cultural heritage, re-shaped through cross-cultural hybridization and influenced by multiple political forces. Review of archives, existing literatures and corporation documents are supplemented with policy analysis and in-depth interviews to explore the centennial development of Hong Kong popular culture, which is by no means demise but at the juncture of critical transition.
