Education and Colonial Transition: The Hong Kong Experience in Comparative Perspective.
Bray, Mark
Comparative Education, v33 n2 p157-69 Jun 1997
Identifies major differences and similarities between educational change during Hong Kong's political transition and during postcolonial transitions elsewhere. Notes that parallel operation of multiple education systems in one country is quite common, and that Hong Kong educational reforms began well ahead of political transition. Examines specific educational changes during 1984-97 and potential future changes. Contains 70 references. (Author/SV)
