| Summary |
Repositioning the Hong Kong Government is a timely discussion on the topic as the complexities of governance in Hong Kong grow and the old strategies of consensus building without genuine public participation fail to satisfy. The volume examines the Hong Kong government's efforts to reposition itself in the economy and society under the pressures of globalization, economic and political restructuring and the rise of civil society. The leading scholars offer new interpretations of the problems and puts forward positive suggestions for resolving them. |
