The issues surrounding Hong Kong’s global position and international links grow increasingly complex by the day as the process of Hong Kong’s transformation from a British colony to a Chinese Special Administration Region unfolds. This volume addresses a number of questions relating to this process. How international is Hong Kong? What are its global and international dimensions? How important are these dimensions to its continued success? How will these dimensions change, especially beyond the sphere of economics? Is Hong Kong’s internationalization, defined in terms of its

Malacological, wetland and marine international workshops have been convened in Hong Kong at approximately three-year intervals from 1977 to 1998. This volume of 35 papers examines the marine environmental changes that have taken place in Hong Kong from 19977 to 2001 in relation to the research results that have been engendered by the workshops. here, eminent marine scientists and local researchers who attended the workshops express their views on the many changes in Hong Kong’s surrounding waters. These views are important as they are derived from knowledge accumulated over a timefra

4 b/w illustrations In late classical and early medieval China, ascetics strove to become transcendents--deathless beings with supernormal powers. Practitioners developed dietetic, alchemical, meditative, gymnastic, sexual, and medicinal disciplines (some of which are still practiced today) to perfect themselves and thus transcend death. Narratives of their achievements circulated widely. Ge Hong (283-343 c.e.) collected and preserved many of their stories in his Traditions of Divine Transcendents, affording us a window onto this extraordinary response to human mortality.

The book explores the impacts of cultural identity, the internal configurations of the educational fields, and the struggles both outside and inside the educational systems on the process of state formations. By comparing Chinese school politics in Singapore and Hong Kong, one mono-racial and another multi-racial, Wong generates a theory that explains diverse connec
