2017年3月5日，中國國務院總理李克強在其《政府工作報告》中提到深化內地與港深的合作，制定「粵港澳大灣區」。此前的「十三五」規劃中，亦有「泛珠三角區域合作」(簡稱「9+2」)，可見粵港澳三地的合作定必頻繁，但三地各自擔當什麼角色？粵、港、澳三地優勢各異―廣東經濟貿易發展迅速，香港的金融地位保持領先，澳門則積極發展其旅遊業。在各自發展中，三地應該如何合作才能發揮各自優勢，互惠互利？本書邀請了粵港澳

2014年11月17日，滬港通正式開通；2016年12月5日，深港通在萬眾期待之下亦正式啟動，既不設定深港通的總額度限制，更取消了滬港通的總額度限額，進一步促進香港與上海、深圳股票及資本市場的雙向交易與發展，亦是中國向國際投資者開放資本市場的里程碑。滬港通、深港通之後，香港應如何抓住當中的投資機會，同時避開未知的風險呢？而未來其他金融領域是否還有別的「互聯互通」？香港應怎樣提前準備，把握住機遇呢？

First published in 1968, this volume of essays, posthumously edited by the author’s brother Professor C. T. Hsia (a prominent Columbia University professor of Chinese literature), focuses on Chinese literary criticism relating to the work of leftist Chinese writers, including Lu Hsün, Chiang Kuang-tz’u, the “Five Martyrs,” and Chü Ch’iu-po, who were sympathetic to the ideals of the pre-1949 Chinese communist party. As one of the few foundational texts to provide a critical overview of the aesthetics and politics of China’s leftist literary movement, The Gate of Darkness examines the conflicting dilemmas between leftist authors’ own ideals and the strict ideological frameworks imposed by the propaganda policies of the Chinese communist party in the early twentieth century.Hsia’s essays are exciting reading precisely because Mr. Hsia approached his subject not merely with the index-cards of a historian but also with the sensitive eyes of a novelist. Tsi-an Hsia is a creative and compassi
