這是陳冠中為下一個好社會而準備的幾組較可靠的諗頭。從來就是揉雜和多樣的當代華文,在三地各自想像中的所謂標準書面文框架下,以白話文、文言文、普通話、地區語、方言、外來翻譯語、新本土流行詞,交錯出約定俗成的歷史發展軌跡,並在讀者的認受局限等多種制衡下,各地方、階層、族群、性別、世代、載體以至個別寫作者仍然可以在有限度自由的情況下,自作主張,寫出各自的、真正意義上的一種華文,多種諗頭,各自表述。 讓分治的缺憾還諸天地,這不妨礙文化上大家多點往回看,如Beatles的歌詞:“Once there was a way to go homeward”。好好觀南望北、左顧右盼,看看你周圍這一代華文新寫作,他者不是地獄而是你的新材料、新血液與新生命。政治上七十年分治帶來的可能是全球的華文使用者,一種華文三千年未遇的一場三及第化的、共生同享的盛世流動華宴。

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。
