The six million people living in Hong Kong's thriving capitalist economy under British colonial rule will be handed over to communist China.
What we don't know is what shape Hong Kong will be in when it is delivered to China, what kind of China will be there to receive it, or the reactions of the main interested parties - this book analyzes the probable outcomes.
The fate of Hong Kong is evidently important for the millions of people who live there; it will also mark a major transformation in the balance of the vital East Asian economy and in the way China itself is governed. As such, it is not an issue of concern only to Britain, but an important international issue, with repercussions in the US, Canada, Australia and the whole of East Asia. | Note de contenu : | N.B.: livre publié avant 1997, date de la restitution de Hong Kong à la Chine |
