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.
