簡介:

港人治港,甚麼港人有資格治港?如何產生治港者?這是香港回歸後最大的政治難題。

香港的選舉制度,有其特色,最重要的莫非兩點:一是愛國者治港原則,二是功能代表制與地域代表制混合。

選舉制度的決定權是一種元權力,是權力遊戲的權力遊戲。要理解香港選舉制度的內在理性,必須有一種正確的時間觀和空間觀,把制度選擇置於歷史語境和地緣政治的背景之下,認識各種政治力量博弈的動態過程。同時,也必須準確地把握港式資本主義的精髓,理解特區商業主義的制度需求,以便在平等與功能主義之間求得平衡。

Abstract:

In this talk, we will explore the concept of “Hong Kong people administering Hong Kong” and discuss the qualifications necessary for individuals to govern Hong Kong. This has been a significant political issue since the region’s return to Chinese sovereignty. The unique electoral system in Hong Kong comprises two key characteristics: the principle of patriots governing Hong Kong, and a combination of functional and geographical representation. The authority to determine the electoral system is a meta-power, a high-stakes game involving various power dynamics. To fully comprehend the intrinsic rationality behind Hong Kong’s electoral system, we must adopt a proper perspective of time and space. By situating system selection within historical and geopolitical contexts, we can better understand the ongoing interplay among diverse political forces. Furthermore, it is crucial to accurately grasp the essence of Hong Kong-style capitalism and comprehend the institutional needs of commercialism within the Special Administrative Region. This will enable us to strike a balance between equality and functionalism.
