This text examines the intersection of youth civic engagement,
identity, and protest in Hong Kong, through the lens of education.
It explores how education and identity have been protested in Hong
Kong, historically and today, and the mark that such contestations
have left on education. Many people, particularly outside Hong
Kong, were astonished by youth participation in the Umbrella
Movement of 2013-2014, and the anti-extradition law protests in
2019. These protests have caused people to consider what has
changed in Hong Kong over time, and what education has to do with
youth civic engagement and political expression. This book provides
an academic, theoretically oriented perspective on the intersection
of youth identity and education in Hong Kong. Coming from an
educational (and philosophical) orientation, Jackson focuses on
areas where greater understanding, and greater potential agreement,
might be developed, when it comes to education. This book will be
of interest to educational policy makers, curriculum specialists,
and educational scholars and students in liberal studies, social
studies, civic education, comparative and international education,
multicultural education, and youth studies.
