Democracy Shelved: Great Britain, China, and Attempts at Constitutional Reform in Hong Kong, 1945-1952

No Customer Reviews

Between 1945 and 1952, the British government considered granting Hong Kong the right to elected self-government, but in 1952 the proposal was withdrawn. This study examines the genesis, development, and eventual abandonment of reform proposals for Hong Kong in the context of postwar British colonial policy and the changing political situation in Southeast Asia.
