Hong Kong and Macao have much in common. The dominant
populations in both territories are Cantonese-speaking Chinese;
both are small in area; both are urban societies; both have been
colonies of European powers; and both have undergone political
transition to reunification with China. Yet in education, for
reasons that are analysed in this book, they are very
different.
The patters of similarities and differences in the two
territories make a fascinating basis for comparative study.
The overarching theme of the book, on continuity and change is
particularly pertinent following the transition of the two
societies of the postcolonial era.
This thoroughly-revised and expanded second edition builds on
the widely-acclaimed first edition. The work has been recognised as
a significant contribution to the broad field of comparative
education as well as to study of the specific societies which are
its main focus.
