Visiting rates ofrecreationists to destinations demonstrated different levels even being under a same emissiveness. In the second part of the paper, the authors described three differentspatial scales of destination choice behavior of Shanghainese to tourist sites fromwhich situated in urban area, to which located in suburb area and in neighboringprovinces. The authors also observed the perceptive evaluation of Shanghainese tothose sites they had visited or would visit in the future. Some proposals abollt sustainable urban tourism development were put forward at the end of this paper.展开更多

From the start I was impressed bythe courteous way the residents of theformer imperial city addressed people andtheir pleasing speech patterns, with curlingtongue to add an "er" pronunciation to manyof the Chinese words - so different from theflatter speech of Shanghai. Over the years inBeijing, I learned how to mimic the accentand found that the people of the two citiesare interestingly different in many ways. I was accustomed to sharing taxis when Iarrived, for in Shanghai, if you are going inthe same direction, strangers double up forcheaper fares. In the capital, however, it ishard to find someone willing to get in ifsomeone is already inside. One weekend,展开更多

To date, it not only serves its traditional function as transportation means, but in addition transforms into a media-rich commercialized place filled with ads in various media forms. It is especially true when it is applied to modern urban cities like Shanghai. Shanghai, as one of the fastest developing cities in China, constantly demonstrates features of international, Chinese and Shanghainese city through various forms of visual environment in the city infrastructures. This study aims at exploring Shanghai through its metro system. In other word, it tends to examine the identity of Shanghai through careful analysis of its visual environment within the metro stations so as to see whether it can reflect the generalized three features as international, Chinese and Shanghainese.展开更多

Male Shanghainese are notorious for doing household labor and being obedient to their wives, which has earned them the nickname Shanghai little men. This study indicates that their grocery shopping and cooking were first inspired by fundamental changes in food distribution and the power structure during the 1950s and 1960s. It treats Shanghai little men as both a special group and a symbol of certain changes in gender roles at home and the redefining of gender norms in the larger society. It examines the shifting discourse concerning Shanghai little men in the era of economic reforms and analyzes a recent popular discourse about ＂seeking real men＂ and ＂being real women.＂ Finally, it deconstructs the current cultural nostalgia for traditional gender-defined divisions of labor, reflecting a parallel developmen--the ＂transnational business masculinity＂ that one sees in China.展开更多
