Faculty Fellow Victoria Hui (political science) published an op-ed in The Globe Post about the upcoming trial of the "Occupy Central Nine" in the 2014 Umbrella Movement in Hong Kong. She discusses the political implications of Beijing's influence in this trial in an attempt to stifle Hong Kong's democratic movement. Hui says, "If Hong Kong remains different than other Chinese cities these days, it is not because it still enjoys the promised “high degree of autonomy,” but because Beijing cannot impose amnesia on Hong Kong people as it can on mainland Chinese."
