Historical Review
I. Before the 1950s: Little Sense of a HK Identity
No border control between HK and the mainland, hence freedom of movement among Chinese;
Nature of the population: mostly ing from the mainland for work with little intention of settling down in HK;
Identity as Chinese: their homeland remaining on the mainland; seeing themselves as sojourners (. “旅港”, “僑港”, “旅港XX同鄉會”)
Sense of HK Identity by the 1990s
“HK is a “way of life”, and my sense of es from being a part of that “way of life”, taking part in the hard work that has made HK a world ess today … students returning from summer trips to China exclaimed how they felt they were culturally different from people in China, and how suddenly they came to feel HK deep down.”(Lo, in #4, -68)
Sense of HK Identity by the 1990s
「活在香港,如果有甚麼共通的經驗的話,恐怕就是這樣一回事:對香港又愛又恨,總想離開,終於又返回原地…. 這種矛盾心態,跟朋友說起,原來是普遍存在於我們這一代的心…. 『我們這一代』,指的大抵就是六十年代前後土生土長的香港人(約於五五年至七五年出生的香港人),跟過往上一代很不同,跟八、九十年代生的,又肯定不一樣。」(李照興編(2000):【香港101】,序一。)
