MA Ngok got his Ph.D in Political Science at UCLA. He has previously taught at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and is now Associate Professor in the Department of Government and Administration at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. His research interests include parties and elections in Hong Kong, social movement and state-society relations in Hong Kong, East European transformation, elections, and democratization. His most recent book was Political Consequences of Electoral Laws: The Experience of the Hong Kong Proportional Representation System.
"Comprehensive, perceptive, and critical, this book is essential reading for anyone interested in Hong Kong politics before and after 1997 and political development and state-society relations in general. Ma Ngok forcefully explains the source of governance crisis and the slow growth of democracy in post-1997 Hong Kong. He argues that the crux of the matter lies in the underdevelopment of political society. This is both a well written work on Hong Kong society and a useful reference for undergraduates and research students in political science, sociology and development studies." - Professor Lui Tai-lok, Department of Sociology, Chinese University of Hong Kong
