description This article analyzes the collective action frame and its interaction with the sociopolitical context of Hong Kong. By tracing the history of civil disobedience, the authors argues that civil disobedience in Hong Kong has been localized by signifying agents as a spontaneous response to the sociopolitical contexts, rather than a planned action. The rapidly changing political environment and sovereignty issues from 1980 onwards had restricted the favorability for opting a planned civil disobedience movement. Through in‐depth interviews with protagonists, major civil disobedience attempts in Hong Kong, including (a) Yau Ma Tei Boat People Incident, (b) Protest regarding 1989 China’s June Fourth Incident, (c) Anti‐Public Order Ordinance Demonstrations, and (d) Citizens’ Radio Incident, are discussed. These four cases would be contrasted with the well‐planned Occupy Central Movement in 2014 to explain why the latter failed to materialize, and why future attempts of civil disobedience will become less possible in Hong Kong. 学习违抗:香港不断变化的社会‐政治背景下“公民违抗”的演变 摘要: 本文分析了集体行动框架及其与香港不断变化的社会‐政治背景之间的相互影响。通过将行为主体表达为对社会‐政治背景的自发响应,而不是安排好的行动,公民违抗的概念实现本地化。自20世纪80年代起,快速变化的政治环境与主权问题限制了选择“经过安排的公民违抗运动”的有利性。通过与(违抗运动)拥护者进行深度访谈,探讨了香港发生的主要公民违抗运动,包括:1)油麻地艇户事件;2)关于1989年六四事件的抗议;3)反《公安条例》示威游行;4)民间电台事件。这四个案例与2014年精心安排的“占中”运动形成对比,以期解释为何后者以失败告终,并反过来将让未来关于公民抗议的尝试在香港变得更不可能实现 Aprender a desobedecer: la evolución de la "desobediencia civil" en el cambiante contexto sociopolítico de Hong Kong Resumen: Este artículo analiza el marco de acción colectiva y su interacción con el contexto sociopolítico cambiante en Hong Kong. El concepto de desobediencia civil ha sido localizado por agentes significantes como una respuesta espontánea a los contextos sociopolíticos, más que como una acción planificada. El entorno político rápidamente cambiante y las cuestiones de soberanía desde 1980 en adelante han restringido la posibilidad de optar por un movimiento planificado de desobediencia civil. A través de entrevistas en profundidad con protagonistas, importantes intentos de desobediencia civil en Hong Kong, que incluyen: 1) Incidente de la gente del barco en Yau Ma Tei; 2) Protesta contra el 4 de junio de 1989 en China; 3) Manifestaciones de ordenanzas contra el orden público; y 4) Incidente de Radio Ciudadana.
