The Chinese culture martial arts have long been associated with knight errantry, an ancient symbol of individuality and resistance against social constraints. The power elites of contemporary socialist Guangzhou and neighboring capitalist Hong Kong have attempted to control the practice of martial arts and to structure the behavior martial artists, but they have not been completely successful. In doing field work in Hong Kong and Guangzhou between the years 1976 and 1981 the aim of my dissertation research project has been twofold: to examine the influence by the power elite in Guangzhou and Hong Kong on Chinese martial arts and to investigate the uses of Chinese martial arts by social marginals who form martial arts groupings not directly controlled by the power elite.

520 $a The Chinese culture martial arts have long been associated with knight errantry, an ancient symbol of individuality and resistance against social constraints. The power elites of contemporary socialist Guangzhou and neighboring capitalist Hong Kong have attempted to control the practice of martial arts and to structure the behavior martial artists, but they have not been completely successful. In doing field work in Hong Kong and Guangzhou between the years 1976 and 1981 the aim of my dissertation research project has been twofold: to examine the influence by the power elite in Guangzhou and Hong Kong on Chinese martial arts and to investigate the uses of Chinese martial arts by social marginals who form martial arts groupings not directly controlled by the power elite.
520 $a Although natives of Hong Kong and Guangzhou share the same cultural heritage, the ideological and political inversions of marginal and rebellious martial artists in the two cities differ due to the fact that they invert two different kinds of ideologies. The ideological reversals of martial artists in Guangzhou are political, frequently they advocate democracy and capitalism while the dominant ideology of the People's Republic of China is a political ideology, Chinese Marxism. The dominant belief system in the Hong Kong is associated with the materialistic beliefs of laissez-faire capitalism, but socially marginal martial artists are frequently attracted to the religious beliefs of disreputable martial arts temple cults. In this dissertation I describe the dramas of resistance acted out by socially marginal martial artists in Hong Kong and Guangzhou and discuss the conflicts which are inherent in their desire to overcome their social and political impotency.
