就香港研究方向而言,由「港式文化研究」,到「文化政治」,再而「香港文化生活」,漸漸由香港文化與社會的大敍述,轉向社會變遷的細節。到最近,有感社會代際轉變,是時候引入創新思維,本書的主要貢獻在於收錄了不同學者對此重要轉變的新近研究。這些研究好讓我們有一大發現:昔日的「香港故事」雖然正在失效,卻沒有被大眾常識中新建的「常規」完全取代,因而整體局面總是內藏大量新舊張力和變數。就此,這些研究又提供了兩大線索。第一,香港的政治權力格局的重構和媒體運作條件的改變,使得任何對大眾事務的觀點和方案都必需面對眾聲喧嘩的洗禮。第二,這些觀點和方案,儘管看起來是為特定力量服務,甚或由特定力量激發出來,往往是頗為混雜含糊,自相矛盾,甚至具有自覺或不自覺的顛覆性。
