Identity Formation and Education Policies in Colonial and Postcolonial Taiwan and Hong Kong

Bachelor thesis | Chinastudies (BA)
This thesis explores how education policies had influenced the developments of different identity formations in colonial and postcolonial Taiwan and Hong Kong. Based on findings about and analysis of education policies that had connections with identity formation, this thesis tries to argue that, firstly, education policies caused different identity formations (Japanese colonial, Chinese and Taiwanese identities) in colonial and postcolonial Taiwan, while education policies contributed to the formation of one single identity, the Hong Kong identity, in colonial and postcolonial Hong Kong. Secondly, consequences of the introduction of education policies on identity formations in Taiwan and Hong Kong were different.
