Banned in 1 country

A political manifesto by Hong Kong scholar and controversialist Wan Chin (陳雲), arguing that Hong Kong should be reconceived as an autonomous city-state rooted in Cantonese culture and resistant to absorption by mainland China. The book became foundational to the Hong Kong localist movement. Its argument for a distinct Hong Kong identity separate from the PRC made it a target of the National Security Law review.
