The seminar will involve a presentation of Professor Buhi’ book, which explores the historical evolution of the constitutional system in Macau and its recent status as an ‘autonomous region,’ with an eye to the comparison with Hong Kong in particular.

About the Speaker:

Jason Buhi is an assistant professor of law at Barry University’s Dwayne O. Andreas School of Law in Orlando, Florida, USA. Prior to joining Barry University, Professor Buhi earned his Ph.D. from the University of Hong Kong Faculty of Law and taught at the Peking University School of Transnational Law in Shenzhen, China. His latest book is based on years of Ph.D. research into the constitutional history of Macau, blending hundreds of Portuguese, Chinese, and foreign-language sources in order to reconstruct a balanced narrative of the lesser understood half of China’s “One Country, Two Systems” formula.

The Law Society of Hong Kong has awarded this seminar 1.5 Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points.
