Download or read book Hands On or Hands Off written by Tony Latter and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2007-08-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Hong Kong's approach to economic policy really as 'hands off' as we are led to believe? How are economic policies determined within Hong Kong's unique governance structure? Tony Latter draws on his deep knowledge of Hong Kong drawn from years in senior positions in the Hong Kong Monetary Authority and Government Secretariat to answer these two central questions about Hong Kong's economic management. He provides both general and specialist readers with an original and wide-ranging exploration of the workings of Hong Kong's economy and the way its economic policies are determined. Challenging Hong Kong's 'hands off' image, the author finds and critiques copious instances of government intervention over the years. He also examines how the government's much vaunted budgetary discipline is less 'laissez faire' than the numbers suggest. Overall, policy formation seems to lack a rigorous, consistent analytical framework. Officials often do not appreciate the distinction between violations of the 'hands off' principle that desirably improve the 'supply side', and violations which foster particular sectors and special interests, frequently influenced by business heavyweights with direct access to the territory's leadership. This book should be read by anyone interested in Hong Kong's economic policy and the processes that underlie it. It will appeal not only to general readers, but to business and professional people who have to function within this unique system of economic management, as well as to academics and researchers in the fields of economics, business or politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the policy-making process is changing in the very volatile conditions of present day mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong. It considers the overall background conditions – the need to rebalance in mainland China after years of hectic economic growth; governance transition and democratic consolidation in Taiwan; and governance crisis in Hong Kong under a regime of uncertain legitimacy. It examines the various actors in the policy-making process – the civic engagement of ordinary people and the roles of legislators, mass media and bureaucracy – and discusses how these actors interact in a range of different policy cases. Throughout the book contrasts the different approaches in the three different jurisdictions, and assesses how the policy-making process is changing and how it is likely to change further.

Download or read book Trade Industrial Restructuring and Development in Hong Kong written by Yin-ping Ho and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In just about 40 years, Hong Kong has, against all odds, developed from a relatively obscure entrepot into a thriving industrial and financial economy of world renown. While such a complete metamorphosis constitutes an intriguing story, what of its future? Challenges of creeping, if not steadily proliferating, mercantilist forces and changing international division of labor aside, the capitalist city-economy of Hong Kong is now facing the problem of changing governance. The future of Hong Kong and its post-1997 destiny as a free-market economy hang in the balance. Focusing on relationships concerning trade in manufactures, industrial restructuring and economic development and enforced by a rich source of data, this book offers an in-depth examination of the evolution and characteristics of Hong Kong's postwar economy. This book presents a historical and comparative perspective, and analyzes the symbiotic connection with South China in the light of China's open-door policy since the late 1970s, as well as providing a thoughtful assessment of its current turning-point. Despite its emphasis on the economy of Hong Kong this book has a broader objective: to contribute to the debate on alternative paths to growth and industrial restructuring in the context of a limited dirigisme, a debate particularly relevant not only to academics in the realm of development economics but also to government economists and other officials concerned with looking for growth lessons and development strategies.
