Description

This book traces Hong Kong's media challenges back to the colonial era, revealing how a uniquely hyper-marketized and oligopolistic media system took root under British governance. Rather than focusing solely on contemporary threats to media freedom, the author demonstrates that structural vulnerabilities existed long before the resumption of Chinese sovereignty. The system, initially encouraged by colonial administrators and later intensified by the Chinese government, creates inherent susceptibility to state intervention whilst systematically disadvantaging dissenting voices and marginal groups. By examining both historical roots and contemporary implications, this work provides essential context for understanding why Hong Kong's media landscape remains structurally vulnerable to concentrated ownership and political pressure. Part of the Routledge Contemporary China Series, this academic study offers scholars, journalists and policy analysts critical insight into how historical media systems shape current freedoms and constraints.
