Partnership between the Chinese Government and Hong Kong's capi: implications for HKSAR governance, 1997-2012 / Fong, Brian C.H   Journal Article
Fong, Brian C.H Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Existing literature has long recognized that a partnership has been forged between the PRC government and Hong Kong's capitalist class. However, the implications of such a partnership for HKSAR governance have yet to be thoroughly explored. By examining the formation of this partnership and its consolidation after 1997, this article argues that the business sector's direct access to the sovereign state has fundamentally changed the dynamics of state-business relations in the HKSAR. As a consequence of the partnership between Beijing and the business sector, business elites have taken their concerns straight to the mainland authorities whenever they see their interests affected by the post-colonial state. This kind of circumvention has become a part of post-1997 politics, undermining the relative autonomy of the post-colonial state and resulting in growing cleavages within the state-business alliance during the first 15 years of the HKSAR. Whether and how such a partnership will evolve in the aftermath of the 2012 chief executive election remains to be seen.

state and domestic capitalists in China’s economic transition: from great compromise to strained alliance / Nogueira, Isabela   Journal Article
Nogueira, Isabela Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article contributes to the debate on the role of the Chinese state in economic transition by shedding light on the relationship between the state and a Chinese domestic capitalist class. The formation of this new class has been a two-way movement between the state and new elites’ forces. This two-way movement remains a prominent feature of the relationship between the state and the new class. This relationship has evolved with the dynamics of capital-labor conflicts and contradictions within a regime of accumulation and transitioned from a stage of “great compromise” to a stage of “strained alliance.”
