Law and Justice in Hong Kong offers readers an accessible and updated account of the legal system of Hong Kong, the only common law jurisdiction in East Asia. Written in a lucid narrative style, it encourages readers to appreciate the underlying values of legal practice and the administration of justice in the context of wider global and regional developments. It also explains the crucial role played by the rule of law in Hong Kong’s historic transition from a cluster of marginal fishing settlements into a leading international financial centre over the course of one and a half century.
