Beschreibungen
<P>Hong Kong and Macao have much in common. The dominant populations in both territories are Cantonese-speaking Chinese; both are small in area; both are urban societies; both have been colonies of European powers; and both have undergone political transition to reunification with China. Yet in education, for reasons that are analysed in this book, they are very different.</P>
<P></P>
<P>The patters of similarities and differences in the two territories make a fascinating basis for comparative study.</P>
<P>The overarching theme of the book, on continuity and change is particularly pertinent following the transition of the two societies of the postcolonial era.</P>
<P></P>
<P>This thoroughly-revised and expanded second edition builds on the widely-acclaimed first edition. The work has been recognised as a significant contribution to the broad field of comparative education as well as to study of the specific societies which are its main focus.</P>
