Funded Activity Summary

The newest nationalism: constructing a Hong Kong national identity. This project aims to investigate the emergence of a political movement promoting Hong Kong nationalism, transforming a seemingly depoliticised trade port into one of the most politically charged cities in the world. The project will use an ethnographic approach of close engagement with activists and their experiences to build on macro-level analyses of Hong Kong’s relationship with China and generate new knowledge of the personal aspirations and anxieties driving these tensions. By observing processes of ethnogenesis in real time, the project will provide innovative insights on the ongoing global debates about the origins, appeal, and implications of nationalism today. The results of the project will help build Australia’s ability to engage with both Hong Kong and China.
