“One country, two systems” is the arrangement under which China rules Hong Kong.Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping came up with the principle in the 1980s to allow Hong Kong to retain its economic and political systems after former British colonial rulers surrendered control of the territory to Beijing in 1997.But the future of the policy has been questioned amid recent events, such as the 2014 Occupy movement, the 2019 disappearances of Hong Kong booksellers and most recently the violent anti-extradition bill protests in 2019.Many Hong Kong people are asking what they can expect when China’s central government assumes full authority when one country, two systems expires in 2047.
