Abstract:Around the founding of People’s Republic of China, the leftist political groups in Hong Kong committed themselves to the values of patriotism, equality and radicalism. Since late 1960s, the leftist groups have been under pressure and compelled to pursue transformation. Politically they adhere to patriotism, but gradually downplay equality and radicalism socioeconomically. Afterwards, in the prevailing trend when political groups turned into political parties in Hong Kong, some leftist groups transformed into “pro-establishment” parties. Meanwhile, another type of “new leftist” parties came into being. The latter are socioeconomically more left-leaning but politically more “localized”. In recent years, the competition between these two types of parties has come to restrain the political development in Hong Kong.
