Description:... "Jos Gamble examines the flow of domestic and international migrants, capital and mass media across Shanghai's boundaries and the consequences of these on a transitional economy. The book introduces the changing senses of what it means to be Shanghainese, and the ways in which consumption is producing, facilitating and marking out new divisions within society."--BOOK JACKET.
