Looking at Chinese Singaporean employees at a French multi-national firm, the author explores the evolving social constructions of 'Chineseness'. Sociologist Manuel Castells once hailed Singapore as 'the only true Leninist project that has survived', and Lee revisits the Singapore 'social laboratory', addressing recent dialectics that transpire within the global political economy. Currently, professional actors need to address the demands of dual hegemony in response to China's rise in the Western-dominated capitalist political economy. Underlying these constructions are enduring dispositions that mediate interpretations of professionalism. The author puts to test the potential for change, surveying a large cohort of teachers as makers of future professionals. The question is, does change occur in the domain of practice or the habitus, if it is possible in the first place? The book will be of interest to scholars and students with an interest in Sociology, Identity and Ethnicity, Business Management, Globalisation, Organizational Sociology and Sociology of Education. . 000778197 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed December 21, 2016) 000778197 650_0 $$aChinese$$zSingapore$$xEthnic identity. 000778197 830_0 $$aFrontiers of globalization series. 000778197 852__ $$bebk 000778197 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-58258-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000778197 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:778197$$pGLOBAL_SET 000778197 980__ $$aEBOOK 000778197 980__ $$aBIB 000778197 982__ $$aEbook 000778197 983__ $$aOnline 000778197 994__ $$a92$$bISE
