The Situation in Hong Kong

July 9, 2020 by Mark Goldberg

As China has become more powerful on the world stage, the Chinese Communist Party has sought to erode Hong Kong’s political independence. On June 30th, the Chinese government passed a so-called National Security Law that criminalized free speech and political activity in Hong Kong.

“This law,” says my guest Victoria Tin-Bor Hui, “means the One China, Two Systems model is dead.” 

Victoria Tin-Bor Hui is an associate professor of political science at the University of Notre Dame. We discuss the content of the new National Security Law before having a broader conversation about its political and social implications of this new era for Hong Kong.
