2022 Issue 27

This week’s issue covers the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to the People’s Republic of China and how in the past quarter century it went from one of Asia’s most free and open cities to a dystopian police state; a massive database of personal details of up to a billion Chinese citizens that was left unsecured on a Shanghai police website; and a piece by Andrea Kendall-Taylor and David Shullman on the relationship between the PRC and the Russian Federation.
