摘要
与复杂的跨国网络与跨界互动相比,公民身份却划分了清晰的边界。香港回归中国主权后,对其公民身份的类别划分带来了极大的挑战。依照香港基本法中对居留权的定义,很大一部分——近一百六十七万人——可以享有这个权利,反映出香港与内地的跨界社会关系有着复杂历史。尽管香港与内地的社会和经济高度统一,但其边界仍然严格限制了人口从内地向香港流动。这种既统一又分离的状况导致了一种复杂的对立,部分地反映在关于居留权的争论。即使那些已经成功移民香港的内地居民也面临着各种挑战,其中最严峻的是怎样在香港这样一个住房价格最高的城市中获得可以负担的住所。因为新移民无法申请公营房屋,但这些房屋却占香港房屋总数的一半。而其私人住房的价格又是世界上最贵的。
The sharp edges of inclusion or exclusion from citizenship are in contrast with the Complex webs of transnational networks and interactions. The return of colonial Hong Kong to Chinese sovereignty posed great challenges for citizenship categories. The definition of the right of abode in the Basle; Law,Hong Kong's Constitution, resulted in very large numbers of people, as many as 1.67 million, who couid claim thls right. These numbers reflect the compiex history of social relationships across the Hong Kong/China border. Despite high levels of socio-econpmic integration; the border still sharply restricts movement from China's mainland to Hong Kong, and this combination of integration and separation generates a complex dynamic, refiected in part in the right of abode controversy. The Hong Kong administration has overturned a court ruling in order to preserve restrictions on migration into Hong Kong by those accorded the right of abode, setting off intense public debatel Those mainlanders who do manage to enter Hong Kong face a variety of challenges, the most Crucial of which is obtaining affordable accommodation in a city with the highest housing costs in the world, New arrivals are excluded from eligibility for publiC housing, which accounts for over half of Hong Kong's housing stock, while private housing is among the world's most expensive.
