AbstractSince late September 2014, thousands of protesters have occupied the main thoroughfares of Hong Kong and pressed demands for, inter alia, a genuine election of the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in 2017. The police initially responded with tear gas, to which the protesters defended themselves with umbrellas, hence giving the movement its popular name. The occupation has lasted for more than a month since then, and there is still no sign of resolution. This article will analyse the causes of this movement and offer some thoughts on its implications for Hong Kong and China.
