Abstract

The text succinctly narrates the history of Hong Kong from its origins to the present, describing it as a victim of historical and geographical circumstances. Being a territorial extension and an administrative region of the People's Republic of China, Hong Kong finds itself between an authoritarian policy and an uncertain future, as British rule legacy, as well as under the constitutional principle One country, two systems with an expiry date to the year 2047.

Moreover, the national identity deficit has led the people of Hong Kong, who enjoy civil liberties in their semi-autonomous condition with regard to the executive government, to a state of widespread discontent and crisis concerning the notion of democracy, autonomy, education, patriotism, national security and economic system.
