This unit is only available to students in the Bachelor of Arts (Communication Studies). It traces the sociohistorical development of cultural industries in Hong Kong from the 1950s to the present, as an expanded case study of communication in practice. Since contemporary Hong Kong culture is inextricably a site of tourism, the unit explores tourism as itself a cultural practice. It also provides an understanding of the development and trends of cultural and tourism industries in Hong Kong (including history, culture, lifestyle, geography and infrastructure). -- Course Website
