Abstract:The Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region passed at National People’s Congress grants Hong Kong high degree of autonomy. At the same time, the central government retains some important powers to ensure the administration of Hong Kong is in accordance with the principles of state sovereignty and exercise the state sovereignty when necessary. In the political reform and democratization of HKSAR, the central government and the administrative and legislative branches of HKSAR play their own roles, revealing a balance between “one country” and “two systems”, between state sovereignty and the democratic autonomy of HKSAR. However, due to the differences and the underlying contradictions between the “two systems”, there have been very heated debates over the Basic Law of HKSAR in which the opposition’s position is completely different from that of the establishment. The successful implementation of “one country, two systems” policy depends on the harmonious relationship between the two different political systems and cultures rather than opposition to each other under the framework of “one country, two systems”. The success and sustainable implementation of “one country, two systems” policy depends on finding a middle ground between “one country” and “two systems” which balances the principle of state sovereignty and the high degree of autonomy of HKSAR so as to achieve a win-win situation for Hong Kong and mainland.
