香港回歸第一階段的歷史反思，1997–2019
本書以尖銳且具批判性的方式，分析了2019年香港修例風波的起落，涵蓋之前發生的「佔中」事件和「旺角騷亂」，以及中央重新強化對香港特別行政區主權後的各種後續發展。有別於那些將這場衝突浪漫化或僅以民族主義方式簡單譴責的論述，胡德超越媒體化的論述，深入剖析其根源，既涉及《基本法》體制，也源於香港殖民管治時期及後殖民轉型不足的歷史脈絡與動態。他探討了本土認同的困境及其不滿、本土主義、暴力與自由主義的問題，以及「自治」的不可能性。作者並闡釋了何謂真正意義上的「去殖民化」，以及其在香港可能呈現的形式。書中第五章以新冠疫情為背景，審視了香港在步入「第二次回歸」時期後，對政府治理能力與民生發展的迫切需求。
