Background
The Department of Architecture, Chu Hai College of Higher Education, Hong Kong, has been organizing annual symposia since 2005. As one of the tertiary institutions providing architectural degree programmes in Hong Kong, the College attempts to take the opportunity of converging scholars, practitioners and the public to arouse the awareness and interest of architectural students' and the public on architectural and urban issues. Symposia of the previous years on "Cultural Heritage" and "Vanishing Cityscape", co-organized by the Antiquities and Monuments Office, Museum of History, and the Hong Kong Architecture Centre, inviting speakers from local, Mainland China, Singapore, Taiwan, Japan and the U.S.A., etc., has successfully drawn the attention of the academia, the profession and the public.

This year the Department intents to broaden the scope of the symposium by focusing on regional issues. The invited speakers will be extended from architectural and urban disciplines to a wider range of socio-cultural areas, allowing different disciplines to overlap and fuse. The theme will emphasize the historical relationship between the cities of Hong Kong and Shenzhen.

Theme
Today, Shenzhen River not only separates Hong Kong and Shenzhen in political and economic senses, but also in socio-cultural sense. However, the increasing permeability of this border in these decades has reminded us to reconsider the relationship between these two cities in future. No matter how the physical border fluctuates in response to the ever-changing political and economic situations, the trend in psychological border in response to the socio-cultural changes is relatively more constant and long-lasting. To project the future amalgamation of Hong Kong and Shenzhen, one should firstly review how these two cities diverged from the start of border. To achieve such review, one should inevitably recall the lost memories of most present urban dwellers about the once unified socio-cultural background between the two cities during the pre-bordered period. To obtain the thorough historical picture of either the pre-bordered Hong Kong or Shenzhen, one should not neglect that of its counterpart.

Architecture and urban form are the accumulation of the political, economic, social and cultural interaction of a city. To understand the historical path leading to the present / future divergence / amalgamation of Hong Kong and Shenzhen, this Symposium seeks to explore the inter-relationship between architectural, urban and different socio-cultural disciplines such as human geography, linguistics, anthropology, of the two cities during the pre-bordered period.

Before the dualities between Hong Kong and Shenzhen produced by the border, these two regions were united under Bao'an / Xin'an County. It was such a period that the pluralities were instead reflected in the difference between ethnic communities such as the Guangfu and the Hakka people, who could be identified by their socio-cultural morphologies such as social organizations, dialects, etc. These further contributed to the generation of urban typologies such as administrative walled cities, markets, walled villages and watch towers distributed in different areas of the county. With the discussions of these topics focusing on the pre-bordered Hong Kong-Shenzhen, this Symposium aims at reinterpreting the following historical issues:

  • The common cultural origin of Hong Kong and Shenzhen
  • The architectural typology of Bao'an / Xin'an Region
  • The relationship between the ethnic communities of Guangfu and Hakka in Bao'an / Xin'an Region
