The 2019 District Council election in Hong Kong
The landslide victory of the pan-democrats sent shockwaves through the political sector, including the Hong Kong and Chinese governments in the 2019 District Council election. A new phenomenon was observed in the election that voting was no longer based principally on utilitarian pragmatism as a driving force. This paper analyzes the 2019 District Council election results from a localism perspective. The adoption of a localism perspective is cond…

The Leadership of the Leung Administration in Hong Kong
This paper aims to analyze the leadership of Chief Executive C.Y. Leung who took office to govern Hong Kong in July 2012 under China's political framework of “One Country, Two Systems.” As Hong Kong enters into a new period of politics in the process of democratization, there are several major political tasks that the Hong Kong chief executive must handle. These include the search for a consensus on the methods of electing the chief executive in …
Political Accountability in Hong Kong

The analysis begins with a review of the theoretical concepts of political accountability and ministerial accountability, and then establishes an operational framework to analyse the current practice of political account…

Public Administration in the NICs
Economic prosperity or democracy
After Hong Kong is integrated with mainland China in July 1997, the economic and political environments of the two places will inevitably link up with each other. Economic modernization significantly not only improves the living conditions of the Chinese, but also alters their social structure and political values. As such, economic prosperity and democracy become the two conflicting values in Hong Kong and China during the transition to 2000. Th…
Sino-British Relations over Hong Kong during the Final Phase of Political Transition
Public Administration in the NICs

Decentralization in Public Administration
This paper aims at discussing the practice of decentralization in public adminis tration in Hong Kong. The operationalization of decentralization in the public sector will be analyzed in the light of the political context in Hong Kong. As Hong Kong is undergoing political transition from a British colony to a Special Administrative Region under sovereignty of Communist China in 1997, decentralization of the public sector is not only a pure admini…
Hong Kong ́s Democratic Challenge
The 1984 Sino-British Joint Declaration stipulates that China will resume sovereignty over Hong Kong in 1997. Yet, democratization in Hong Kong poses a serious challenge to the exercise of Chinese sovereignty. On the one hand, it weakens the Chinese leadership on the island and, on the other, it threatens the communist regime on the mainland. Mutual distrust between the leaders of China and Hong Kong will certainly retard or even kill the develop…

Administrative Culture and Democracy in Hong Kong
bservers typically describe Hong Kong as an undemocratic and execuO tive-led colony in which administrative officers dominate the decisionmaking process. The civil servants of Hong Kong-a dominant force that controls most of Hong Kong's administrative organizations-play an active role in initiating and drafting the colony's policy proposals.' The senior civil servants who work for the policy branches and administrative departments are not only ad…
