Synopsis
When Hong Kong was handed back to China on 1st July 1997 few suspected that capitalism, not communism, would generate the most anxiety during the months ahead. But human rights, democracy and the rule of law remained contentious issues, and resurfaced dramatically when Hong Kong voted on May 1998.Related books and articles at Questia
