Exploring the history and reform of policing in Hong Kong, this book focuses on the colonial years and questions accepted colonial history. Part One argues that colonial policing in Hong Kong (as in elsewhere) takes on local color and hue in practice. Part Two describes the HKP's four distinctive reform periods: the formation period (1845), the reorganization period (1872), the modernization period (1950s), and finally the decolonization period (1990s).
