City of Protest: A Recent History of Dissent in Hong Kong

City of Protest: A Recent History of Dissent in Hong Kong (Penguin Specials: The Hong Kong Series)

Hong Kong is a city with a long history of civil disobedience. Antony Dapiran explores the historical and social stimuli and implications of public dissident movements from the turbulent 1960s until the most recent wave of protests, which became apparent in the 2014 Occupy Central movement. What emerges from these grassroots movements is a unique Hong Kong identity, one shaped neither by Britain nor China. City of Protest is a compelling look at the often-fraught relationship between politics and belonging, and a cityâ€™s struggle to assert itself.
