  • The Flaneur Looks Up: Reading Chinatown Verticalities

    Gary W Mcdonogh, Cindy Hing‐yuk Wong et al.ARTICLEStreetnotes2019

    While verticality seems intrinsic to the fabric of the modern city—a concrete second nature—understanding this dimension involves negotiations of people, functions, scale, and representations, especially as mobile people transform existing cityscapes. Perhaps nowhere is this more evident than in Chinatowns worldwide, where generations of Chinese, interacting with complex cities around them, have created places for varied immigrants and dispersed …

    Analysis of human interaction with and interpretations of the surrounding physical world has been of fundamental interest for anthropology since its emergence as a discipline in the nineteenth century. The comparative description of homes, monumental spaces, and worked landscapes has provided foundations for social and cultural analysis and facilitated early exchanges with archaeology, architecture history, and linguistics. Over time, changes in …

  • Global Hong Kong

    Cindy Wong, Cindy Hing‐yuk Wong et al.BOOKGlobal Hong Kong2014

    Global Hong Kong locates Hong Kong in the contemporary globalizing world. Hong Kong, as the authors argue, is an archetypal place, sitting at the intersection of East and West. It is also a major center for global capital flows and world trade. Moreover, in recent years, the island's global cultural power has become increasingly evident, as Hong Kong popular culture has spread to the West via a booming film industry. While looking at issues of po…

  • America's First Black Town: Brooklyn, Illinois, 1830-1915

    Gary W Mcdonogh, Sundiata Keita Cha-Jua et al.ARTICLEJournal of American History2001Cited by: 3

    Since the 1990s, the “new urbanism” has revitalized the image of “smalltown America” in many planning discussions. While Florida's Seaside and Celebration seem literally Disney fied and may evoke new segregations by race and class, “neotraditionalism” also speaks to quests for community and order in innercity neighborhoods. Some have challenged such nostalgia, noting that Main Street was a Sinclair Lewis dilemma before it became a theme park; hen…

  • The Mediated Metropolis: Anthropological Issues in Cities and Mass Communication

    Open AccessCindy Hing‐yuk Wong, Gary W McdonoghARTICLEAmerican Anthropologist2001Cited by: 5References: 15

    Cinema, radio, television, video, the Internet, and other visual mass media have found niches in the dense creativity of twentieth-century urban life, altering social practices and cultural encounters worldwide. Yet, without cities where producers and audiences have congregated, mass production, texts, distribution, and reception lack human foundations. This symbiosis demands careful ethnographic analysis of media within concrete urban histories.…

    Open AccessGary W McdonoghARTICLECity & Society1997References: 9

    While urbanists may see the future city melting into flows of information or erupting into conflicts among ever more divided populations, concrete and longstanding attachments of people and places have nonetheless continually reconstituted urban societies over millennia and may also illuminate our analyses of the future. While recognizing transnational movements, dual cities and urban sprawl, we must also ask who still lives in cities, why, and w…
