Twenty years of Hong Kong and Macao under Chinese rule: being absorbed under ‘one country, two systems’
Twenty years of Hong Kong and Macao under Chinese rule: being absorbed under ‘one country, two systems’
This paper examines the implementation of ‘one country, two systems’ (1C2S) in the two former Western colonies, Hong Kong and Macao, as a policy innovation
in managing inter-governmental relations of a large, diverse country like China. 1C2S embodies internal tensions because the Hong Kong and Chinese
governments have multiple and often incompatible goals. After 20 years, these two special administrative regions (SARs) of China are gradually being absorbed.
