Abstract

Civil disobedience flooded Hong Kong in 2019. However, protests have changed its character since the last massive demonstrations in 2014. This article outlines direct and contextual reasons for the outbreak of protests in Hong Kong in 2019 from the perspective of Bert Klandermans’s model. The aim of the research is also to indicate the directions of protests in this Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China. The findings presented are the result of the author’s field work carried out since 2012. It should be emphasised that the protests in Hong Kong are the result of the progressive mainlandisation of the region, and in the deeper layer – of the socio-economic problems of citizens. The protests in 2019 brought a change in the tactics of manifesting civil disobedience.
