Learners will identify the main features of British administration in the first half of the 20th century. They will describe the major administrative changes from 1945 to 1997. Through an examination of the role of local Chinese leaders and associations in the process of these administrative changes, learners will assess the factors/forces fostering changes and continuity. Through enquiring into the major political and institutional changes that occurred in Hong Kong from the beginning of the 20th century to 1997, students will identify the main trends of political development, as well as different stages of development and their salient features.
