Conflict (The Hong Kong Series, Book 2)
What do you do when two million people hate your guts? Sergeant Andy Wong, of Hong Kong’s famed Police Tactical Unit (PTU), Bravo Company is an honourable man who loves his job. When the people of Hong Kong take to the streets to voice their displeasure against government policies, it’s Andy and his fellow colleagues who are tasked with maintaining law and order and putting an end to the riots and disruption that begin to plague the city. But after months of constant duty, days and nights on the streets enduring verbal and physical abuse from the public, ostracised by his friends, and a deteriorating relationship with his family, the cracks begin to show. When the lines between truth and falsehood, good and bad, become increasingly blurred, and faced with a wife who barely speaks to him, and a daughter he never sees, Andy becomes increasingly conflicted. Who really are the bad guys? Where should his loyalty lie? Who is helping the rioters disappear from right under the noses of the PTU patrols?
The Oxford Handbook of Political Psychology
This updated third edition gathers together an international group of distinguished scholars to provide an up-to-date account of key topics and areas of research in political psychology. Focusing first on political psychology at the individual level (attitudes, values, decision-making, ideology, personality) and then moving to the collective (group identity, mass mobilization, political violence), this fully interdisciplinary volume covers models of the mass public and political elites and addresses both domestic issues and foreign policy. Now with new chapters on authoritarianism, nationalism, status hierarchies, and minority political identities, along with updated material, this is an essential reference for scholars and students interested in the intersection of the two fields.
