Description

Explore the changing landscape of movement and demographics with Migration in Post-Colonial Hong Kong, part of the Routledge Contemporary China Series. This academic text examines the evolution of mainland migration patterns since 1995. Historically, many migrants to Hong Kong have been the wives or non-adult children of Hong Kong men from lower socio-economic backgrounds. However, the data shows a significant shift in the immigrant profile. For more than two decades, women have made up more than 60% of the immigration population. As the profile of these individuals changes, the book tracks how migrants are becoming significantly more educated compared to previous generations. Even with the rise in educational levels and increased participation in paid employment since 1991, the text addresses the ongoing difficulties migrants face during their integration process. This book provides a detailed look at the sociological shifts within the region, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers in anthropology and sociology.
