Isi artikel

Hong Kong has faced tremendous transitions as the United Kingdom and China negotiated its political future which culminated in China's resumption of sovereignty over Hong Kong in July 1997. Whilst massive human rights violations in Hong Kong have not materialised after 1997, the autonomy as has repeatedly been promised to the people of Hong Kong by the British and Chinese governments has been eroded. We will assess whether Hong Kong is entitled to the right of self - determination under international law and, if so, what the right entails and whether and how it has been violated or implemented. We will then discuss how the ultimate aim of universal suffrage in Hong Kong continues to be diluted. Finally, we will examine the constitutional implications of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress' power and use of interpretation of a law that is meant to be the ultimate law of Hong Kong.
