A masterpiece of studying the interaction between the Hong Kong Law and gender/sexual politics.

This book attempts to produce multiple perspectives, enlightened by postmodernism, psychoanalysis and postcolonialism, in understanding and cross-examining the power dynamics constituted and territorialized by laws controlling sex work, pornography, artifcial reproduction and emotional relationships, and formulate suggestions for corresponding legal amendments. The book also discusses how the transplantation of theories and related laws can be conducted in order to develop an indigenous notion of justice in Hong Kong.

One primary purpose of studying the connection between the legal machine and gender / sexual politics has been to sensitize (mainstream) society towards injustice and inequality faced by the powerless and the suppressed. Underlying this purpose is the belief that different strategies can be constructed and facilitated under particular cultural and political discourses. This book attempts to produce multiple perspectives, enlightened by postmodernism, psychoanalysis and postcolonialism, in understanding and cross-examining the power dynamics constituted and territorialized by laws controlling sex work, pornography, artificial reproduction and emotional relationships, and formulate suggestions for corresponding legal amendments. The book also discusses how the transplantation of theories and related laws can be conducted in order to develop an indigenous notion of justice in Hong Kong.
