Contents Introduction: the challenge and the opportunity -- 1. The significance of Hong Kong -- 2. Differences between the Hong Kong and Chinese systems -- 3. The troubled negotiations -- 4. Problems of the last phase of transition -- 5. 1997 and beyond -- 6. Conclusion: a turning point for China?
Summary This is the first study to analyse the serious problems and real opportunities that the return of Hong Kong poses to China. Examining the relationships between Greater China, Hong Kong and the West, Hong Kong: China's Challenge explores the challenges that Chinese policy makers face up to 1997 and beyond: the clash of political cultures; handling problematic negotiations; and dealing with conflicting economic interests. The book concludes by suggesting that a laissez-faire approach to the lucrative Hong Kong markets will ensure that China harnesses the full political and economic benefits of sovereignty over the colony
