China's Hong Kong Transformed

Retrospect and Prospects Beyond the First Decade

About this book

This impressive array of penetrating analysis sharpens appreciation of the ongoing transformations of China's Hong Kong since 1997 and the possibilities toward an integrative merger-convergence with the Mainland by 2047. A unique strength of this volume lies in the wide-ranging views offered by the chapter authors. They share their cherished visions, passionate critiques, and committed missions for a better HKSAR. Indeed, their insightful contributions are directly relevant to Hong Kong's exciting post-colonial metamorphosis. How well will the HKSAR populace reposition themselves as citizens of the most globalized and progressive domain under PRC sovereignty to contribute more to China's national advancement? How shall they reinvent China's Hong Kong by preserving their core values through institutions and processes that harmonize with Mainland polity, society, and economy, while becoming a genuinely integral part of China? This volume is a refreshingly enlightening reference for a more informed approach ahead.
