On the use of Chinese characters and Romanization in English publications
Publications are not consistent in how they use Asian scripts and their romanizations. In the case of Chinese (though also applicable to other Asian languages), authors should take advantage of current digital technology by using characters in text to identify terms for readers who know Chinese, and only use romanization when they expect readers who do not read Chinese to know how to pronounce a key term. References should not duplicate character…
The view from Hong Kong anthropology
Hong Kong has an autonomous anthropology with close ties to Anglo-American traditions. The city has seen anthropology grow since the 1980s, partly as a result of the overall growth in tertiary education, but also because of Hong Kong’s shift from manufacturing to a global city focused on financial services. Its unusual history and autonomous institutions make it a separate example of anthropology in Asia. Teaching and research have focused on Chi…

It is difficult to identify religion in Hong Kong because many people do not recognize their practices as religious. Many traditional practices and rituals, from neighborhood processions to "superstitions"…
The Problem of Greed in Economic Anthropology
Until recently, greed was kept in check in China by two forms of nonreligious restriction on consumption, the sumptuary laws of the imperial period and by politically imposed austerity of the collective era. Sumptuary laws in Qing Dynasty (1644–1911) China, enforced Confucian notions of hierarchy, modesty, and restraint and limited the display and spending of the wealthy. In contrast, political and social pressures led the masses in Mao's China t…
