During the year 50 new members joined, including 5 life members. There was, however, a loss of 63 members most of whom resigned on leaving the Colony. To offset this loss there were two encouraging features. Ten ordinary members, some of whom were leaving the Colony, showed their continuing interest by becoming life members, and it is hoped that more members will follow this excellent example.

Wang Gungwu 1994).\n\n\"The post-colonial is about the diasporic consciousness\", complains Friedman (1999), defining it as a 'discourse of hybridity' concerned with a 'conscious critique of the colonial in all its forms, from the economic to the cultural'.\" And it is in this context that I should like to raise the question of nostalgia and its power to overcome barriers of time and space. Jon Mitchell, a former colleague of mine in Edinburgh, has described how a displaced urban Maltese community made use of nostalgia as a 'strategic resource' to reconstruct through imaginary means a vanished community and a sense of community which had been inevitably destroyed (Mitchell 1998), and similar work has taken place for the Algerian-Jewish community in France.1 More detailed work by Paerregord (1997) on migrants returning to their native village in the Peruvian Andes contrasts nostalgic images with other kinds of image which are held by different groups of migrants and which affect life back in the village in different ways.\n\nNostalgia implies the displacement from an origin, and in an age of the flexible accumulation of capital (Harvey 1989) and globalised flows of people, commodities and signs (Lash and Urry 1994) in which local contexts have become increasingly problematised as imaginary constructs, the emotion of nostalgia provides perhaps the most important and appropriate vehicle for the sentimental articulation of links between the global and the local, the present and the past. As the direct corollary to the idealism of utopianism, the idealism of nostalgia adopts a temporal structure, expressing a dissatisfaction, an unease or disenchantment with the present, together with a yearning for an imagined, or recollected, what-went-before.\n\nLowenthal (1985) reminds us that nostalgia (like melancholy and consumption) was for a long time thought of as a particular disease. In the seventeenth century nostalgia was common among travellers far from their native homes, who pined and sighed for their remembered pasts, in a kind of anomie which has probably always had a particular association with travelling, and with the Voyage which was to become institutionalised through the European Grand Tour pioneered by the Romantics. Nosos (return to native land) with algia (suffering). Hong Kong has often enough been characterised as a forward-looking\n\n16\n\n17",

Nostalgia, and pastiche of the past, is almost commonplace, and through what was called the 'post-modern' eclectically mixes emblems of diverse eras of the past to provoke a momentary pang. The irony of Flagstaff House's transformation from a military site to a tea museum, noted by Abbas (1997), is a good example of this post-modern bricolage of meanings and historical ironies typified by Charles Moore's Piazza d'Italia in New Orleans (Harvey 1989), which we can find too in the toothless attendants and bright paints of restored Colonial Williamsburg (Lowenthal 1985), or the imaginary nostalgia of Disneyland disguising the unreality of America itself (Baudrillard 1994). But here I should like to draw attention to the importance of nostalgia as, if you like, a strategic resource for knitting together communities which have become dispersed and fragmented.\n\nWhile nostalgia adopts a temporal form (nostalgia for the past), it essentially implies the sense of belonging to a place (nostalgia for a place), as in its etymological roots. Can there be nostalgia for a taste, a face, an experience of abandon, a vanished emotion or capacity? Of course there can, but these experiences are all associated with a particular locus, a particular time and place (in the past). That place may never have existed, as writers from Lowenthal and Lovell to Mitchell remark, or not have existed for those who pine for it; the remembered, longed-for experience may be purely fictive and imaginative. Then again, it may have been very much a reality the loss of which is regretted; it was a real, living community we mourn the passage of. In any case, through the power of memory and recollection, that experience, that community, that place, can hardly be recollected exactly as it was, so that there is an inevitably imaginative, fictive quality to the faculty or power of nostalgia.\n\nIn one sense, it may not matter very much whether the lost object was, or was not, a reality, since that reality will have been transformed through the nostalgic recollection of it. Yet, in another sense, it does matter that not all nostalgia is necessarily imaginary; that real separations, real partings, may be what are being mourned.",

For a very general overview of Chinese globalisation, see Ong (1999). \n\nAbbas (1997) confuses the discussion of Hong Kong as a place with its people, and talks of the 'cult of the ephemeral' as if modernity had only happened in Hong Kong. This is poetry (and somewhat hysterical poetry), not analysis. It is easy to say that 'the difficulty with locality in Hong Kong is locating it', or to emphasise as Siu (1999; cf.1996) does that 'the Hong Kong identity is attached to a territory without clear boundaries', or to emphasise as Wong Siu-Lun (1999) does the skilled manipulation of multiple identities by migrants from the south China coast. But Wong emphasises that these identities are also ‘effective shields to deflect state domination', while Siu (1999) speaks of ‘a distinct Hong Kong ethos' which is unique and has emerged from a particular history; 'Hong Kong was not a barren rock when the British came'. \n\n12 Chan (1994) starts from an outmoded notion of culture which he thinks is anthropological'. He then finds it difficult to understand how Hong Kong can have contradictory or diverse cultural values. \n\n13. The notion of 'Chinese' here, though, would repay further examination. Is it zhongguoren which is meant (citizens of China), or tongren, the conventional term for the southern Chinese? \n\n14 Dirlik (1994) too, seeing the post-colonial as a critique of the ideology of global \n\nPage 225\n\nPage 226",
