Framing Social Movements in Contemporary China and Hong Kong / Social Protests, Village Democracy and State Building in China: How Do Rural Social Protests Promote Village Democracy? / Social Movements and State-Society Relationship in Hong Kong / Social Movements and the Law in Post-Colonial Hong Kong / Defining Hong Kong as an Emerging Protest Space: The Anti-Globalisation Movement / 'Old Working Class' Resistance in Capitalist China: A Ritualised Social Management (1995-2006) / Justifying the New Economic and Social Order: The Voice of a Private Entrepreneur / Rise of Migrant Workers' Collective Actions: Toward a New Social Contract in China / Grassroots Activism and Labour Electoral Politics under Chinese Rule, 1997-2008 / Hong Kong's Trade Unions as an Evolving Social Organisation and Their Prospects for the Future / Non-governmental Feminist Activism in The People's Republic of China: Communicating Oppositional Gender Equality Knowledge / Hong Kong Catholic Church: A Framing Role in Social Movement / Religiosity and Social Movements in China: Divisions and Multiplications / Khun Eng Kuah-Pearce and Gilles Guiheux -- Baogang He -- Ngok Ma -- Albert H.Y. Chen -- Khun Eng Kuah-Pearce -- Jean-Louis Rocca -- Gilles Guiheux -- Chloe Froissart -- Ming K. Chan -- Sek Hong Ng and Olivia Ip -- Cecilia Milwertz and Wei Bu -- Beatrice Leung -- David A. Palmer.
The starting point of this book is the acknowledgement that on one side Chinese individuals, freer from the constraints of the State, have to rely on their own efforts for their well-being and, on the other side, in some circumstances, they gather together to defend their interests. The individualisation of society goes hand in hand with the collective movements that emerged as a result of individual wants.
