Past studies in the West have shown that education increases people's support for abstract democratic principles, but not necessarily for concrete policies implementing these principles. Written by Joseph Man Chan, Kenneth K.L . Chau, and Francis L.F. Lee, this paper examines the impact of education on opinion formation in Hong Kong. Do people w i th different educational levels hold different opinions regarding abstract social principles? How does support for principles and the calculation of concrete self-interest affect opinion on policies? The right of abode controversy in 1999 provides a test case for these questions. Drawing on two surveys, the authors have found that tertiary education had an enlightening effect on people's support for and application of social principles, especially during the early stages of the controversy. Tertiary education is also observed to be negatively related to people's concern for social interest.
