This book discusses the notion of "Hong Kong as Method" as it
relates to the rise of China in the context of Asianization. It
explores new Hong Kong imaginaries with regard to the complex
relationship between the local, the national and the global. The
major theoretical thrust of the book is to address the
reconfiguration of Hong Kong's culture and society in an age of
global modernity from the standpoints of different disciplines,
exploring the possibilities of approaching Hong Kong as a method.
Through critical inquiries into different fields related to Hong
Kong's culture and society, including gender, resistance and
minorities, various perspectives on the country's culture and
society can be re-assessed. New directions and guidelines related
to Hong Kong are also presented, offering a unique resource for
researchers and students in the fields of cultural studies, media
studies, postcolonial studies, globalization and Asian studies.
Main melody films are propaganda works that pay tribute to the
Chinese nation, the party and the army. Since the turn of the
century, they have gradually developed into the main genre of
Chinese cinema, and its blockbusterization is arguably the most
phenomenal aspect of the 2010s Chinese film industry. As an
increasing number of Hong Kong directors are commissioned to direct
main melody blockbusters, Chu examines their contributions to this
genre, shedding light on the development of cross-border
cooperation between the mainland and Hong Kong film industries.
