Lost Hong Kong: A History in Pictures

Lost Hong Kong: A History in Pictures

Peter Waller

BLACKSMITH BOOKS
2020
nidottu
The story of Hong Kong is one of almost constant change. From a sleepy fishing community, Hong Kong - now a Special Administrative Region following its return from Britain to China in July 1997 - has grown into one of the most significant financial and trading centres of the world. Hong Kong Island itself has witnessed massive rebuilding over the years, with the result that much of the colonial-era architecture has been swept away and replaced by skyscrapers. Moreover the first high-rise buildings constructed from the late 1950s onwards are now themselves under threat as the constant requirement for more accommodation - both for people and for businesses - continues. The Kowloon peninsula and the New Territories have also experienced development, whilst the construction of the new airport saw the destruction of an entire island to create the foundations of the new facility. The pressure for land has seen reclamation schemes extend the coastline of Hong Kong Island far to the north. Over the years photographers have recorded the changing face of Hong Kong: its street scenes, buildings and people. This new book - drawing upon images from a wide range of sources, many of which are previously unpublished - is a pictorial tribute to this lost Hong Kong. Once familiar but now long-gone scenes are recorded, offering a tantalising glimpse back at an era which in chronological terms may be relatively recent, but given the rapidity of change, seems like a distant age.

British Labour and the Cold War

British Labour and the Cold War

Weiler Peter

Stanford University Press
1988
sidottu
A critical examination of the labour government and trades Union Congress in the immediate postwar period, this book argues that the Cold War was not just a traditional conflict between states but also an attempt to contain the growth of radical working-class movements at home and abroad. These radical movements, stimulated by the Second World War and its aftermath, seemed to policymakers within the Labour Party and the TUC to threaten British interests. The author contends that the Labour government never seriously considered following a socialist foreign policy, but instead sought to shape political developments throughout the world in ways most conductive to maintaining Britain's traditional economic and imperial interests. The government was able to follow established policies abroad and increasingly at home at least in part because British trade union leaders supported its attempts to prevent radicals and communists from coming to power in trade union movements inside Britain and throughout the world. In so doing, the trade union movement significantly extended its links with the state, in particular by cooperating with it in the sphere of foreign and colonial labour policy. This book is organized as a series of case studies, linked by two main themes of TUC and Labour government collaboration: their attempts to influence the trade union movements of European and Third World workers toward policies favorable to Britain, and their use of the issue of anticommunism as a means of overcoming opposition to their programs and shaping the views of their followers.
