In Found in Transition, YiuWai Chu examines the fate of Hong Kong's unique cultural identity in the contexts of both global capitalism and the increasing influence of China. Drawing on recent developments, especially with respect to language, movies, and popular songs as modes of resistance to "Mainlandization" and different forms of censorship, Chu explores the challenges facing Hong Kong twenty years after its reversion to China as a Special Administrative Region. Highlighting locality and hybridity along postcolonial lines of interpretation, he also attempts to imagine the future of Hong Kong by utilizing Hong Kong studies as a method. Chu argues that the study of Hong Kongthe place where the impact of the rise of China is most intensely feltcan shed light on emergent crises in different areas of the world. As such, this book represents a consequential followup to the author's Lost in Transition and a valuable contribution to international, area, and cultural studies.
