1. New spaces of Urban Marginality within the global diaspora of Hong Kong: Introduction -- 2. The Quality of life for the Urban Marginality in Hong Kong -- 3. Can the social life of small urban spaces benefit the urban marginalities -- 4. Sense of place and sense of self; place identity and body politics on the pavements of Hong Kong -- 5. The tangible and intangible challenges in linking the marginal with the central: 'all together for a street event' -- 6. Conclusion.

This book aims to examine the characteristics, roles and social values of public spaces in the globalized territory of Hong Kong. Choi focuses on the usage of public space by marginalised communities, particularly the foreign domestic helpers of Hong Kong. By examining their weekly social and political activities across a range of public spaces in the city, Choi addresses the influence of the marginalized on the wider community and built environment of this advanced capitalist society.
