By taking the magazine as a nodal point of social and cultural activism from and around which actions, debates, community, and artistic practices are formed and generated, this book fills gaps in studies on how young Hong Kong cultural producers carved out an alternative creative and political space to speak against established authorities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSplit into three parts, this book provides readers with a panoramic view of the political and cultural activisms in Hong Kong during the 1970s, writings on art and film, and crucially, interviews with former founders and contributors that reflect on how their participation led them to engage ideologically with their activism and community that extended far beyond the temporal and physical bounds of the magazine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lu Pan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9888805703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789888805709\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hong Kong University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/28\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.13h x 6.22w x 0.71d","brand":"Lu Pan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45477352079615,"sku":"9789888805709","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8bd37299-c108-44f4-b766-3aa6fae9ae00.jpg?v=1715919795","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-70s-biweekly-lu-pan-9789888805709","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
