I am interested in the topic of Hong Kong Democracy Movement because I am concerned about the relationship between mainland China and Hong Kong. Hong Kong has its special history and thus special social system. There does exist ideological differences between mainland China and Hong Kong. But since Hong Kong has been reverted to China in 1997, Hong Kong is a part of China. And the steady of Hong Kong society is also an important issue to mainland China. I think the break out of Hong Kong protest movement derives from the different ideology between Beijing and Hong Kong. However, both sides don’t have a perfect way to deal with it. Because of Hong Kong special status, there is no precedent to follow, both sides are in game and are looking forward to a balance point. So I think the problem deserves to be discussed. In my research paper, I will try to define whether Hong Kong so-called democratic movement is really democratic. Because so far, with my collection of information, this movement still remains to be discussed whether it is democratic or maybe only semi-democratic. Also I want to analyze whether this movement will lead Hong Kong to a full democracy future. My target audiences are those who comment or regard Hong Kong protest as a democratic movement. I want to question them and challenge their conception towards democratic. I also want to express my opinions about Hong Kong future political development to those who also forecast Hong Kong’s future themselves. I have found one academic source relating to Chinese reaction towards Hong Kong inclination to democracy, and this is helpful to my forecast of Hong Kong future political development. And another popular source is a detailed analysis towards Hong Kong society in economy, politics and judiciary. It is useful because it tells me something deep in Hong Kong and I will apply it in my research paper.
