An updated edition of a close and comprehensive look at modern Hong Kong politics up to the present.

In its third edition, Contemporary Hong Kong Government and Politics analyzes Hong Kong’s basic political institutions, mediating institutions, political actors, specific policy areas, and its relationships with the mainland and the international community.
