- Abstract
Since 2019, Hong Kong has experienced another wave of social movements against the intervention of extradition policy of mainland China, which caused devastating effects to Hong Kong society meanwhile made people start to consider the origin of Hong Kong social movements. The dramatic changes of national identity for Hong Kong people seem to be roughly positive correlation with the frequency and intensity of Hong Kong social movements in recent years, which reflects the gradual increased strength of closed localism trend in political resistance with central government of China. This article aims at arguing that under the political influence from mainland China and long-time sufferings from British imperialism governance, this positive relation couldn’t achieve the purpose of democratization. Therefore, it's reasonable for Hong Kong to conduct certain partial democratic system for maintaining the stability and prosperity of itself with the different understanding of democracy.
