Balanced scholarly analysis of Macau's recent transition to Chinese rule.
Book Description
This book analyzes Macau's transition from a Portuguese autonomous territory to a Chinese special administrative region. It examines the role of Beijing, Lisbon, the local Portuguese Macau administration-the Macau branch of the New China News Agency, the Luso-Chinese Joint Liaison Group and the local political and social groups. It stresses the dynamics of interactions between actors as well as the political, economic and social changes in the enclave that have direct or indirect impact on the transition.
