Hong Kong cinema 1982-2002 : the quest for identity during transition
Electronic redacted version excludes material for which permission has not been granted by the rights holderThis thesis seeks to interpret the cinematic representations of Hong Kongers’ identity quest during a transitional state/stage related to the sovereignty transfer. The Handover transition considered is an ideological one, rather than the overnight polity change on the Handover day. This research approaches contemporary Hong Kong cinema on two fronts and the thesis is structured accordingly: Upon an initial review of the existing Hong Kong film scholarship in the Introduction, and its 1997-related allegorical readings, Part I sees new angles (previously undeveloped or underdeveloped) for researching Hong Kong films made during 1982-2002. Arguments are built along the ideas of Hong Kongers’ situational, diasporic consciousness, and transformed ‘Chineseness’ because Hong Kong has lacked a cultural/national centrality. This part of research is informed by the ideas of Jacques Derrida, Homi Bhabha and Stuart Hall, and the diasporic experiences of Ien Ang, Rey Chow and Ackbar Abbas. With these new research angles and references to the circumstances, Part II reads critically the text of eight Hong Kong films made during the Handover transition. In chronological order, they are Boat People (Hui, 1982), Song of the Exile (Hui, 1990), Days of Being Wild (Wong, 1990), Happy Together (Wong, 1997), Made in Hong Kong (Chan, 1997), Ordinary Heroes (Hui, 1999), Durian Durian (Chan, 2000), and Hollywood Hong Kong (Chan, 2002). They meet several criteria related to the undeveloped / underdeveloped areas in the existing Hong Kong film scholarship. Hamid Naficy’s ‘accented cinema’ paradigm gives the guidelines to the film analysis in Part II. This part shows that Hong Kongers’ self-transformation during transition is alterable, indeterminate, and interminable, due to the people’s situational, diasporic consciousness, and transformed ‘Chineseness’. This thesis thus contributes to Hong Kong cinema scholarship in interpreting films with new research angles, and generating new insights into this cinematic tradition and its wider context
Perspectives of the dentists on smoking cessation in Hong Kong
Objectives. To describe dentists’ current practices in conducting smoking cessation counseling and to investigate factors associated with an active role in such counseling in Hong Kong. Methods. A mailed questionnaire survey was conducted on a random sample of 484 Hong Kong dentists. Information on beliefs, attitudes, and confidence of the dentists towards smoking cessation counseling, current practices, and perceived barriers to such counseling, as well as personal information about the dentists were collected. Results. A total of 211 dentists completed the questionnaires. More than half of the respondents (55%) asked and recorded patient smoking status routinely in their practices. Among them, over 90% advised smokers to quit and explained the associated health risks to them. Less than half (47%) assessed each patient’s willingness to attempt quitting. Around one third of the dentists provided printed resources to patients about smoking cessation (37%), assisted patients in smoking cessation (38%), and arranged follow-ups (36%). Multiple logistic regression showed that dentists who were female (odds ratio=3.5, P=0.001), graduated in Hong Kong (odds ratio=3.6, P<0.001), and had received training related to smoking cessation (odds ratio=7.3, P<0.001) had a significantly higher chance of asking and recording the patients’ smoking status. The top three barriers perceived by the dentists in conducting smoking cessation counseling were lack of patient motivation, lack of time in the consultation, and lack of smoking cessation protocols and guidelines. Conclusions. Smoking cessation counseling activities were not actively carried out by dentists in Hong Kong. Factors associated with dentists who asked and recorded the patient’s smoking status were gender, place of graduation, and receipt of relevant training. patient’s smoking status were gender, place of graduation, and receipt of relevant training
Towards a local community: colonial politics and postwar Hong Kong cinema
My dissertation uses film to shed new light on our understanding of postwar Hong Kong and the colonial history of community building. The 1950s and 1960s was a period of social turmoil and enormous uncertainty for the colony; it is however, also a period little understood in relation to Hong Kong’s development from a remote British colony into a hypermodern global city in the 1980s and 1990s. Ideological struggles in Cold War Hong Kong were waged in the realm of an increasingly politicized local society, as Hong Kong became a battleground for the ideological struggles between pro-Communist and pro-Nationalist sympathizers, both vying for the allegiance of the Hong Kong public. Using film as archival evidence, I aim to explore the relationship between British colonial rule and Hong Kong’s grassroots population, on the one hand, and on the other hand, to foster an alternative understanding of being Chinese in the Cold War.Item withdrawn by Mark Zulauf ([email protected]) on 2011-04-13T14:01:02Z

Ksavers Andermanis – LU Akadēmiskās nozīmītes meta autors
Raksts tapis kā turpinājums 2024. gada septembra mēneša priekšmetam par Latvijas Universitātes (LU) Akadēmisko nozīmīti, kur uzmanība pievērsta LU Akadēmiskās nozīmītes meta autoram, LU Arhitektūras fakultātes studentam un novadpētniekam, vācbaltietim Ksaveram Andermanim. K. Andermanis ne tikai ir sniedzis ieguldījumu Latvijas etnogrāfijas pētniecībā, bet arī LU simbolu izgatavošanā, kas mūsdienās saglabā savu unikalitāti un vērtību. Meta autora piederība pie LU saimes sakņojusies jau viņa ģimenē, jo viņa tēvs ir absolvējis Rīgas Politehnisko institūtu, LU priekšteci starpkaru periodā, un strādājis LU Saimniecības padomē par inspektoru.The article is a continuation of the September 2024 Museum Object on the Academic Badge of the University of Latvia (UL), which focuses on the author of the UL Academic Badge design, the student of the Faculty of Architecture and local historian, the Baltic German Ksavers Andermanis. K. Andermanis has not only contributed to the research of Latvian ethnography, but also to the production of symbols of the UL, which today retain their uniqueness and value. The author's belonging to the UL family is rooted in his family, as his father graduated from the Riga Polytechnic Institute, the predecessor of UL during the interwar period, and worked as an inspector at the UL Economical council
