Leung, B: Hong Kong Sar: in Pursuit of Domestic and Interna

Despite the fact that there are already many books on the challenges facing the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR), Hong Kong SAR makes a distinct contribution by offering an analysis of the evolving political order in Hong Kong and its international role. The contributors, who have all been studying the territory for many years, focus on the plans of the Chinese authorities and the expectations of the people of Hong Kong. They analyze the gap between the priorities of decisionmakers and the populace, and assess the inherent possibilities for the development of crises, as well as any contingency plans formulated to deal with them.While each chapter attempts to establish a theoretical framework and consider the relevant theories, the editors have succeeded in publishing a work that will benefit scholars, professionals, and anyone interested in developments in the territory at this crucial stage.
