Soft Cover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: n/a. First Edition. A monograph on the modern trade in antiquities in mainland China, based on research on a specific complex in Xiamen, Fujian Province. The author explores the history of the trade and its development in light of the overall growth in China's economic fortunes. Differentiating between guwan (essentially curios) and wenwu, or objects of real cultural significance, the author traces the trade in both categories, in relation to the social transitions, particularly the migration from village to urban areas, that China has undergone in recent years. A fascinating insight into the booming trade in Chinese art and antiquities. 20 pp. Size: 22 x 14 cm.…

Soft Cover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: n/a. First Edition. Sixteen ethnographic case studies on tourism in China and elsewhere by Chinese and non-Chinese scholars, the result of a conference on the subject. While Yunnan is a particular focus, tourism in Guizhou, Hong Kong, and Macau are also studied. A number of papers deal with ethnic tourism and conservation, and major anthropological perspectives on the study of tourism are also presented. An important aspect of China's economic development over the past two decades, tourism has had a major impact on local economies and socio-cultural development, topics insightfully pursued here. The volume makes a major contribution to the study of ethnic tourism, an activity closely intertwined with representing ethnic minorities, their interaction with the state, as well as their management of marginality, modernity, and globalization. 348 pp., illustrated, partly in colour. Size: 21 x 15 cm.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. 1st. Does Chinese food taste the same in different parts of the world? What has happened to the Chinese diet in mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau? What has affected the foodways of Chinese communities in other Asian countries with large Chinese diasporic communities? What has made Chinese food popular in Australia, Indonesia, the Philippines and Japan? What has brought about the adoption and adaptation of western food and changes in Chinese diets in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Peking? By considering the practice of globalization, this volume of essays by well-known anthropologists from many locales in Asia, describes changes, variations and innovations to Chinese food in many parts of the world, paying particular attention to questions related to how foods are introduced, maintained, localised and reinvented according to changing lifestyles and social tastes. The book reviews and broadens classic social science theories about ethnic and social identity formation through the examination of Chinese food and eating habits in many locations. It reveals surprising changes and provides a powerful testimony to the impact of late twentieth-century globalization.…
