The Realistic Landscape, Differences, and Efficiency Enhancement Path of Political Identity among Young Students in Guangdong and Hong Kong: An Investigation Based on the High School Political Curriculum Standards

Abstract

The high school stage is the "budding stage" for the cultivation of national and political identity among young people. As a key course for cultivating moral character, high school ideological and political education plays an important leading and nurturing role. Through the comparative analysis of the guiding documents for high school political curriculum in Guangdong and Hong Kong, namely the curriculum standards, it can be found that the differences in political identity among young students in Guangdong and Hong Kong are due to the incomplete content of the Hong Kong high school political curriculum standards, as well as various erroneous social trends and media misleading, which have infringed on the cultivation of political identity among young students in Hong Kong and weakened their national and political identity. In this regard, it is necessary to further improve the political curriculum standards for Hong Kong high schools, vigorously promote the construction of political courses in Hong Kong high schools, and play the role of political courses in rectifying the root causes, in order to effectively enhance the political identity of young students in Hong Kong.
