In Academic Freedom in Hong Kong, Jan Currie, Carole J. Petersen,
and Ka Ho Mok explore the unique situation in Hong Kong, a tiny
jurisdiction in which there is active protection for the freedom of
expression despite the close proximity and relationship with
mainland China. Hong Kong scholars and intellectuals assume the
responsibility of public critics, but this is not without an
element of crisis. The authors draw upon interviews with academics
and university administrators and examine two historical incidents
that led to a strengthening of academic freedom, as well as the
legal and political ramifications affecting the present and future.
This book will interest East Asian scholars and academics in
universities around the world where freedom of expression is
threatened in this time of heightened security.
