Hong Kong’s Many Peoples – And Their Regional Roots

Previous: 5. The Basics | Index | Next: 7. People/Biography/Memoir

By Vaudine England

This section attempts to combine a global perspective on Hong Kong to a now established understanding of Hong Kong history, to look more closely at the many varied peoples of Hong Kong and its neighbourhood.

Reading around the issues provides many questions to be answered with regard to Hong Kong: how did settler and/or expatriate life in Hong Kong compare to that of Shanghai and other Treaty Ports; were personalities different or strictures of race and class and if so, how; did being a colony rather than a mere treaty port produce a different matrix of security/insecurity, identity/lack of identity or other differences; were definitions of Britishness the same across all foreign settlements or was Hong Kong unique, and what did that mean for other ‘Others’, such as those of separate classes, races or mixtures thereof.

PRIORITY READING SUGGESTIONS:

Bickers, Robert. Settlers and Expatriates: Britons over the Seas. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2010.

Bickers, Robert. Britain in China: Community, Culture and Colonialism 1900-49. Manchester: Manchester University Press, 1999. This draws a clear line between ‘settlers’ and ‘expatriates’ in a geography almost entirely focused on Shanghai – not Hong Kong – thus on informal empire: the International Settlement, the concessions, and the variations of treaty port settlements. ‘Settlers’ are lower-middle class Britons and non-Western ‘British people’ (including Parsees, Jews, Eurasians), who ran the Shanghai Municipal Council, staffed the Police, ran utilities, and created a self-defined community on the China Coast for generations. One chapter examines what ideas of China these people would have had before they left Britain for the East. Bickers then details the intense socialisation process each new recruit went through on landing in Shanghai – being met by a longer-term settler, introduced to the small and exclusively Western social scene, the club, the sport, the horse-racing, the tiny and in his view self-satisfied world of people who believed they had a right to be in China, who developed their own history of being there, and felt entitled to stay there no matter what. He places the people who ran Jardines, Swires and the other big hongs as ‘expatriates’, a hard line to hold as of course some expatriates were also settlers. Settlers are those who stayed in the East, who saw home as being in China, who were the (mostly western) compradores of international trade, and who therefore had a stake in that grey zone status continuing.

His narrative traces how the 1925 shooting of Chinese in Shanghai woke London up to the fact that these settlers had developed a life of their own which was not necessarily in line with London’s interests which were then (and are today) all about trade with Peking. London set about demolishing the grey zones, ending various treaty port arrangements, trying to make clear what was a colony and what was not – all this long before world war two. So ‘settlers’ were already having to see Hong Kong as their last hope, before the war and before the communist victory.

Bickers, Robert. Empire Made Me: An Englishman Adrift in Shanghai. London: Allen Lane/Penguin, and Columbia University Press, 2003. (Winner of the 2004 AHA Forkosch Prize for post-1945 British and British Imperial History.) This dives deeply into the life of one man, Tinkler, who was a policeman in Shanghai and met a shaky end. He is a classic example of a Poor White, those who did not run the hongs, but whose lives were shaped by the opportunities of empire. Bickers’ descriptions of ‘settler’ culture are sadly disparaging – the narrow-minded racism, petty shifts for status, being in China not for China but for themselves, etc.

ARTICLES RELATING TO EURASIANS IN HONG KONG, via JSTOR:

This list highlights several points: there is a rich trove of literature on Indonesian Eurasians, on American Chinese, overseas Chinese, and inter-marriage between ethnicities in Singapore (and Malaysia). Separately of course, “Eurasia” has specific geographical, archeological, geological meaning in the land links between China and Europe (the “Stans”, the Steppe etc). And there has been a Russian debate on what it calls Eurasians, a specific outgrowth of the 1917 revolution and evolving ideologies of Russianness. There is, however, no single article in these lists about Hong Kong’s Eurasians!
