Abstract
ABSTRACT In ‘On capitalism’s cusp’, Jamie Peck critiques prior explanations of capitalist variegation. His ‘zones of friction, seams, cusps, and fault lines in a world of inconstant conjunctions’ offer a template for his critique of the Greater Bay Area initiative of China’s government, and of Hong Kong’s role in it. This framework also provides a means to rethink the internal and external challenges Hong Kong faces, even as its status as a global financial centre remains secure. While Peck sets out a broad-brushed framework, its specifics await future development.
