This book explores gender dynamics in the indigenous villages (also
known as walled villages) in post-handover Hong Kong. It looks at
how Hong Kong's reunification with China has impacted the walled
villagers, in particular the women, and how the walled villages'
current gender dynamics in return reflects the changes that have
happened in Hong Kong after the reunification with China. It traces
the historical development of the walled villages, outlines the
nature of walled-village society, and explores the changes
currently at work including the erosion of the rural/urban divide,
the increasing participation of indigenous women in Hong Kong
society more widely and the breakdown of traditional social norms,
especially patriarchy.
