It argues that casino capitalism propelled the region s economic prosperity and social stability in the period starting from the internationalization of the casino industry in 2002 to the end of 2019. However, casino capitalism also exacerbated the income gap between the rich and the poor. To tackle income inequality, the Macau developmental state combined casino capitalism with social welfarism. The region s developmental state has been characterized by its relatively decisive leadership, its autonomy from the capitalist and working classes, and a comparatively weak civil society. China has encouraged Macau to shift from its overdependence on casino capitalism to economic diversification and integration with the Greater Bay Area. However, given Macau s long-standing and profound dependence on casino capitalism, the path of economic diversification is destined to be long and difficult. As this book also argues, the Macau model of one country, two systems is a unique one which cannot be easily transplanted to Hong Kong, where the overdeveloped politics and assertive civil society are a far cry from Macau s frozen politics and quiescent society.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book explores the dynamics of Chinäs new united front work in Hong Kong. Mainland Chinese penetrative politics can be seen in the activities of local pro-Beijing political parties, clans and neighborhood associations, labor unions, women and media organizations, district federations, and some religious groups. However, united front work in the educational and youth sectors of civil society has encountered strong resistance because many Hong Kong people are post-materialistic and uphold their core values of human rights, the rule of law and transparency. Chinäs new united front work in Hong Kong has been influenced by its domestic turn toward ¿hard¿ authoritarianism, making Beijing see Hong Kong¿s democratic activists and radicals as political enemies. Hong Kong¿s ¿one country, two systems¿ is drifting toward ¿one country, two mixed systems¿ with some degree of convergence. Yet, Taiwan and some foreign countries have seen Chinäs united front work as politically destabilizing and penetrative. This book will be of use to scholars, journalists, and observers in other countries seeking to reckon with Chinese influence.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 440 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book shows that Hong Kong¿s protests from June to December 2019 originated from not only an attempt to extradite a Hong Kong man involved in a Taiwan murder case, but also Chinäs effort at extraditing corrupt mainlanders who laundered dirty money in the territory. The mixture of peaceful and violent protests was due to the snowballing effect of protestors-police confrontations, the imbalanced way in which police exercised their power, and protestors¿ strategies. The protests triggered the national security concerns of Beijing, which mobilized the People¿s Armed Police to Shenzhen as a warning rather than sending them openly to Hong Kong to avoid undermining the image of ¿one country, two systems.¿ The entire debate raised the concerns of Washington, Taiwan, and foreign governments, heightening Beijing¿s sensitivity. After the bill was withdrawn, the anti-extradition movement has become anti-police and anti-mainland, constantly challenging the legitimacy of the Hong Kong government and Beijing. This is a valuable read for China watchers, political scientists and all those interested in the future of East Asia.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 400 pp. Englisch.
