I have changed the names of the informants and modified their stories slightly in order to hide their identities.
14 See Siu, "The nature of encapsulation: responses to the new production responsibility systems in two brigades in southern China", a paper presented at the Conference on Economic Reforms in China, Harvard University, 1983.
15 Such characterization of the Hong Kong working class culture was put forth to me by Deborah Davis. See also Lau 1982.
16 See Shi Hua, " 'Biaoshu' zai Xianggang” (“Maternal Uncles” in Hong Kong), Jiushi Niandai (February) 1985: 34-37.
17 See Li Ming-kun 1980, op. cit.
18 See He Li 1983, op. cit. The limitations of a short paper do not allow me to describe fully the conditions of Hong Kong workers in general. Consult the Hong Kong Annual Report published by the Hong Kong government. For an analysis of the political culture of Hong Kong, see Lau 1982. For recent debates over the 1997 issues, see a collection of articles by Li Yi, Xianggang qiantu yu Zhongguo zhengzhi (The Future of Hong Kong and Chinese Politics), 1985, Going Fine Press.
