En ny säkerhetslag för Hong Kong antogs i tisdag. Redan har böcker rensats ut från biblioteken. Guardian skriver om det Klipp: The city’s cultural services department, which runs libraries, said books had been removed while it is determined whether they violate the national security law. “In the process of the review the books will not be available for borrowing and reference,” it said.The law targets acts of subversion, secession, terrorism and colluding with foreign forces. Klipp: The new security law and the removal of books raised questions of whether academic freedom still exists. Hong Kong has some of Asia’s best universities and a campus culture where topics that would be taboo on the mainland are still discussed and written about. But Beijing has made clear it wants education in the city to become more “patriotic” especially after a year of huge, often violent and largely youth-led pro-democracy protests. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jul/05/hong-kong-books-by-pro-democr… Jan -- Jan Szczepański F.d Förste bibliotekarie och chef för f.d Avdelningen för humaniora, vid f.d.
