This month, the given topic is ‘Native’ and our inaugural guest will be the noted anthropologist, Professor Gordon Mathews.For over four decades, Professor Mathews has written or edited books about the meanings of life, culture and identity and asylum seekers. He has spoken widely on Hong Kong’s ever-shifting identity and what it means to “belong to a nation” in Hong Kong and elsewhere in Asia. Professor Mathews’ celebrated 2011 work 'Ghetto at the Center of the World' is indispensable to anyone who wants to understand Chungking Mansions as a complex reflection of Hong Kong at its most cosmopolitan.well-receivedFollowing on from his well-received CreativeMornings talk on Hong Kong identity, we are thrilled to welcome Professor Mathews back and to further explore what it means to be a Hongkonger in this modern age.
