From Minimum Wage to Standard Work Hour: HKSAR Labour Politics in Regime Change
This paper aims to highlight the significance of labour issues – namely, the minimum wage (MW) and standard working hours (SWH) – in shaping candidates’ electoral platforms in the 2012 chief executive (CE) election of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) under the sovereignty of the People's Republic of China (PRC). We first offer a brief review of labour politics regarding the MW case as a precursor to the SWH drafting and enactme…
Introduction: The Basic Law, Governance and Electoral Politics in China's Hong Kong and Macao since 1997
1 July 2007 marks the tenth anniversary of Hong Kong's retrocession to Chinese sovereignty to become a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the PRC. The HKSAR has functioned under the ‘One Country, Two Systems’ framework as enshrined in the Basic Law, its mini-constitution. Upon the resumption of Chinese jurisdiction over Macao on 20 December 1999, a similar ‘One Country, Two Systems’ formula also came into effect for the new MSAR under its Bas…

Different Roads to Home: The retrocession of Hong Kong and Macau to Chinese sovereignty
The retrocession to Chinese sovereignty of Hong Kong in 1997 and Macau in 1999 have been milestones in the PRC's national reunification drive. While these two South China coast enclaves share many similarities under Western colonial rule, their homecoming to China was markedly different in several key dimensions. HK's contested sovereignty and democratization mired Sino-British cooperation over transition matters, except for the British forces-PL…

Hong Kong Workers toward 1997: Unionisation, Labour Activism and Political Participation under the China Factor
This essay delineates the three related areas on Hong Kong's labour front, unionisation, labour activism and political participation, which have been transformed by the new China factor of 1997 sovereignty retrocession and economic integration. During the last two decades, the decolonisation‐democratisation processes have rapidly politicised organised labour to such an extent that political unionism displaced social unionism as the hallmark of th…

Hong Kong: Colonial Legacy, Transformation, and Challenge
After 140 years of British rule, which transformed it into a world city of 6 million, Hong Kong embarked upon a fundamental transformation as the 1984 Sino-British agreement mandated the end of British colonialism and the sovereignty retrocession to the People's Republic of China on 1 July 1997. The China factor has ushered in the related processes of decolonization, localization, internationalization, and democratization. It also provoked a risi…

In this collaborative effort by two leading scholars of modern Chinese history, Ming K. Chan and Arif Dirlik investigate how the short-lived National Labor University in Shanghai was both a reflection of the revolutionary concerns of its time and a catalyst for future radical experiments in education. Under the slogan Turn schools into fields and factories, fields and factories into schools, the university attempted to bridge the gap between inte…

Stability and Prosperity in Hong Kong: The Twilight of Laissez-faire Colonialism? — A Review Article
Both Beijing and London have vowed to maintain Hong Kong's stability and prosperity in the uncertainty surrounding the expiration of the New Territories Lease in 1997. The six books under review are timely but not entirely successful attempts to trace local socioeconomic developments since the riots of 1967. Three major themes emerge. The still-prevalent Chinese family system and social values have provided the foundation for political stability …
