过去三十年来,香港对贫穷和社会排斥的研究兴趣日益浓厚。然而,这一领域的调查发展仍然主要是“自上而下”或“专家主导”的。“自下而上”或“外行”的观点,利用普通公众的观点,很少被纳入。本文探讨如何运用共识性焦点小组方法,推动香港贫穷与社会排斥测量的理论与实践。本文将英国的《2012年贫穷与社会排斥研究》与香港的情况相结合,报告公众对生活必需品的看法和对社会排斥的理解。研究发现,社会对哪些项目和活动构成香港可接受的生活水平有强烈的共识。此外,虽然社会排斥是一个不熟悉的概念,但与会者能够确定并解释歧视(影响新来者)、地理隔离、长时间工作文化和难以获得保健服务等关键因素。
There has been growing research interest into poverty and social exclusion in Hong Kong over the past 30 years. However, the development of surveys in this field continues to be primarily ‘top-down’ or ‘expert-led’. ‘Bottom-up’ or ‘lay’ perspectives, utilising the views of ordinary members of the public, are rarely incorporated. This article discusses the use of consensual focus group methods to advance the theory and practice of poverty and social exclusion measurement in Hong Kong. By adapting the UK Poverty and Social Exclusion Study 2012 to the Hong Kong context, the article reports on public perceptions of the necessities of life and understanding of social exclusion. The study found a strong social consensus about what items and activities constitute an acceptable standard of living in Hong Kong. Furthermore, whilst social exclusion was an unfamiliar concept, participants were able identify and explain experiences such as discrimination (affecting new arrivals), geographical isolation, a culture of long-working hours and poor access to health services as key elements.
