Abstract

At present, local awareness is growing in Hong Kong. More and more "Hong Kong independence" advocates "the right to self-determination of the nation" and attempts to separate from the motherland by conducting a referendum. Hong Kong independence members use international jurisprudence as a cloak of social movements and conduct illegal treason activities that have drawn our attention. Through the jurisprudential analysis on the right of national self-determination, this paper traces the international legal origin of the right of national self-determination, and analyzes and reveals the illegality of the abuse of self-determination by the "Hong Kong independence" of the separatist movement.
