Liberal patriotism in Hong Kong / Chan, Elaine; Chan, Joseph   Journal Article
Chan, Elaine Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Since Hong Kong's reunification with the People's Republic of China in 1997, debates about patriotism have erupted from time to time in Hong Kong. Considering Hong Kong's socio-political background, the feelings and attachment of Hongkongers towards their motherland are unsurprisingly complex. We therefore need a multidimensional concept to capture the complexities of Hong Kong patriotism. Based on survey data, we propose that the term 'liberal patriotism' best describes the type of patriotism in Hong Kong society, which is that love of the homeland and the state are qualified by liberal democratic values.

Traditional Values and Political Trust in China / Zhai, Yida   Journal Article
ZHAI, Yida Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Chinese traditional culture is viewed to sustain political trust in the authoritarian regime. Given that Chinese cultural traditions are complex and multi-dimensional, it is ineffective to deal with this notion by a single index. This study divides Chinese traditional values into a non-political dimension (traditional family and social values) and a political dimension (traditional political values). Then, I empirically test how different dimensions of Chinese cultural traditions shape the ordinary people’s orientations toward their political institutions and government officials. The results show that the impact of traditional values on political trust varies by its different dimensions. Traditional political values and social values are positively correlated with both institutional trust and trust in government officials. Traditional family values are positively correlated with trust in government officials but do not have an effect on institutional trust. Liberal democratic values negatively correlate with trust in government officials, but this effect on institutional trust is not significant.
