“低端全球化”:世界多元文化互动图景的想象——《香港重庆大厦:世界中心的边缘地带》

Low-end Globalization:Imagination of the World s Multicultural Interactive Picture——Ghetto at the Center of the World:Chungking Mansions,Hong Kong

香港,形塑了全球化背景下人们对国际大都市的想象,它是一个与时俱进的繁荣之地,在享受全球化的同时,也为世界呈现了全球化的另一种形式。重庆大厦里往来的流动人口所形成的“低端全球化”成为麦高登关注的议题,“低端全球化”的流动使世界共享全球化互惠的果实。文章以麦高登教授的著作《香港重庆大厦:世界中心的边缘地带》为分析文本,尝试分析促使“低端全球化”产生的因素并探究香港重庆大厦之外的世界是否也存在“低端全球化”现象。

Hong Kong,which shapes people s imagination of international metropolises under the background of globalization,is a prosperous place to keep pace with the times.While enjoying globalization,it also presents another form of globalization for the world.The low-end globalization of the floating population in Chungking Mansions has become a concern for Gordon Mathews.The flow of low-end globalization makes the world share the fruits of globalization.This paper attempts to analyze the factors that contribute to the low-end globalization,and whether outside in the world is also like Chungking Mansions in Hong Kong through Professor Gordon Mathews s text,Ghetto at the Center of the World:Chungking Mansions,Hong Kong.
