在快速变革的今天.越来越难以在政府—社会两者间划出一条清晰的界线。“在社会中的国家”理论主张关注政府与社会之间的互动和渗透,以促进对政府与杜会关系和边界问题的理解。香港旅游业监管制度变迁的过程显示,政府宜多聆听各方意见,从社会实际需求出发来灵活推动变革.从而保持政府与社会的良性互动。 It is becoming increasingly difficult to draw a clear line between the government and society at a time of rapid change. The theory of “state in society” advocates a focus on the interaction and infiltration between government and society so as to promote understanding of the relations between the government and the host society and the border issue. The process of Hong Kong’s tourism regulatory reform shows that the government should listen more to the opinions of all parties and flexibly promote change based on the actual social needs so as to maintain the positive interaction between the government and the community.
