    Confession, Redemption, and Death: Liu Xiaobo and the Protest Movement of 1989 Geremie Barmé1 There should be room for my extremism; I certainly don’t demand of others that they be like me... I’m pessimistic about mankind in general, but my pessimism does not allow for escape. Even though I might be faced with nothing but a series of tragedies, I will still struggle, still show my opposition. This is why I like Nietzsche and dislike Schopenhauer. Liu Xiaobo, November 19882 I FROM 1988 to early 1989, it was a common sentiment in Beijing that China was in crisis. Economic reform was faltering due to the lack of a coherent program of change or a unified approach to reforms among Chinese leaders and ambitious plans to free prices resulted in widespread panic over inflation; the question of political succession to Deng Xiaoping had taken alarming precedence once more as it became clear that Zhao Ziyang was under attack; nepotism was rife within the Party and corporate economy; egregious corruption and inflation added to dissatisfaction with educational policies and the feeling of hopelessness among intellectuals and university students who had profited little from the reforms; and the general state of cultural malaise and social ills combined to create a sense of impending doom. On top of this, the government seemed unwilling or incapable of attempting to find any new solutions to these problems. It enlisted once more the aid of propaganda, empty slogans, and rhetoric to stave off the mounting crisis. University students in Beijing appeared to be particularly heavy casualties of the general malaise.

    November 2006 China Human Rights and Subscribe Rule of Law Update View PDF Version United States Congressional-Executive Commission on China Senator Chuck Hagel, Chairman | Representative Jim Leach, Co-Chairman Message From the Chairmen Reform of the Death Penalty Review Process The Commission commends the recent positive steps that China's leaders have taken to help minimize wrongful executions and provide greater procedural due process to criminal defendants. In September, the Supreme People's Court and Supreme People's Procuratorate issued reform measures that establish concrete guidelines for death penalty appeals. On October 31, the Chinese government passed an amendment that requires all death sentences to be reviewed by the Supreme People’s Court. The new amendment brings the primary law governing China's judiciary into conformity with other laws governing the criminal process and incorporates into law policy goals that the Supreme People's Court established in October 2005, when it issued a new five-year reform program for the Chinese judiciary. As a next positive step, the Commission urges the Supreme People’s Court to give full effect to its October 2005 commitments, by issuing a judicial interpretation to settle unresolved issues in the death penalty review process and to clarify its own procedures for review. Announcements Translation: Reform of the Death Penalty Review Process The Congressional-Executive Commission on China has prepared translations of the Decision on Amending the PRC Organic Law of the People's Courts, issued by the National People’s Congress Standing Committee on October 31, and the Trial Provisions on Several Issues Regarding Court Hearing Procedures in Death Penalty Appeals Cases, jointly issued by the Supreme People’s Court (SPC) and Supreme People’s Procuratorate (SPP) on September 21.

This controversial document, forced upon an unwilling but helpless Tibetan government, compelled Tibet to co-exist with a resurgent communist China. The People’s Republic of China will once again flaunt this dubious legal instrument, the only one China signed with a “minority” people, to continue to legitimise its claim on the vast, resource-rich Tibetan tableland. China will use the anniversary to showcase its achievements in Tibet to justify its continued occupation of the Tibetan Plateau.

This study diverges from most scholarship on Six Dynasties music culture in four major ways. The first concerns the type of text examined: since the standard histories have been extensively researched, I work with other types of literature. The second is the casual and indirect nature of the references to music that I analyze: particularly when the focus of research is on ideas, most scholarship is directed at formal essays that explicitly address questions about the nature of music.
