"Thoroughly Reforming Them Towards a Healthy Heart Attitude"
By Adrian Zenz - Version of this paper accepted for publication by the journal Central Asian Survey "Thoroughly Reforming Them Towards a Healthy Heart Attitude" - China's Political Re-Education Campaign in Xinjiang1 Adrian Zenz European School of Culture and Theology, Korntal Updated September 6, 2018 This is the accepted version of the article published by Central Asian Survey at https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/02634937.2018.1507997 Abstract Since spring 2017, the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in China has witnessed the emergence of an unprecedented reeducation campaign. According to media and informant reports, untold thousands of Uyghurs and other Muslims have been and are being detained in clandestine political re-education facilities, with major implications for society, local economies and ethnic relations. Considering that the Chinese state is currently denying the very existence of these facilities, this paper investigates publicly available evidence from official sources, including government websites, media reports and other Chinese internet sources. First, it briefly charts the history and present context of political re-education. Second, it looks at the recent evolution of re-education in Xinjiang in the context of ‘de-extremification’ work. Finally, it evaluates detailed empirical evidence pertaining to the present re-education drive. With Xinjiang as the ‘core hub’ of the Belt and Road Initiative, Beijing appears determined to pursue a definitive solution to the Uyghur question. Since summer 2017, troubling reports emerged about large-scale internments of Muslims (Uyghurs, Kazakhs and Kyrgyz) in China's northwest Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR). By the end of the year, reports emerged that some ethnic minority townships had detained up to 10 percent of the entire population, and that in the Uyghur-dominated Kashgar Prefecture alone, numbers of interned persons had reached 120,000 (The Guardian, January 25, 2018). -

Modern Environmental Science and Engineering (ISSN 2333-2581) July 2019, Volume 5, No. 7, pp. 583-589 Doi: 10.15341/mese(2333-2581)/07.05.2019/004 Academic Star Publishing Company, 2019 www.academicstar.us Spatial Distribution Characteristics of Color Steel Plate Buildings in Lanzhou City Jinmei Wang1,2,3, Weifang Yang1,2,3, Shuwen Yang1,2,3, and Haowen Yan1,2,3 1. Faculty of Geomatics,Lanzhou Jiaotong University, China 2. National-Local Joint Engineering Research Center of Technologies and Applications for National Geographic State Monitoring, China 3. Gansu Provincial Engineering Laboratory for National Geographic State Monitoring, China Abstract: Color steel plate building has the characteristics of beautiful appearance, low cost, light weight and fast construction speed. It is an important product in the rapid development of the city. It is widely distributed in urban villages, urban fringe, new technology development zones, construction sites and other plots.Its spatial distribution has obvious aggregation characteristics and regularity. This paper takes the four main urban districts of Lanzhou as the research area. Based on the 2017 remote sensing image and urban regional vector boundary data, the GIS platform is used to obtain the color steel plate building vector data by human-computer interaction interpretation, using buffer analysis method, spatial statistical method, etc, the spatial distribution characteristics of color steel plate buildings in the study area were discussed. The results show that the building density of color steel plate decreases with the distance from the Yellow River, which is consistent with the logarithmic model. As the distance from the city center increases, the overall decline, rising at 4-6km, 12-16km. -
Prevalence and Causes of Blindness, Visual Impairment Among Different
Li et al. BMC Ophthalmology (2018) 18:41 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12886-018-0705-6 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Prevalence and causes of blindness, visual impairment among different ethnical minority groups in Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, China Yanping Li1, Wenyong Huang2, Aoyun Qiqige3, Hongwei Zhang4, Ling Jin2, Pula Ti5, Jennifer Yip6 and Baixiang Xiao1,2* Abstract Background: The aim of this cross-sectional study is to ascertain the prevalence and causes of blindness, visual impairment, uptake of cataract surgery among different ethnic groups in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China. Methods: Four thousand one hundred fifty people at 50 years and above from different minority ethnic groups were randomly selected for an eye examination. The four trained eye teams collected data using tumbling E visual chart, torch, portable slit lamp and direct ophthalmoscope in 2015. The World Health Organization’s definition of blindness and visual impairment (VI) was used to classify patients in each ethnic group. Data were analyzed by different minority groups and were compared with Han Chinese. Results: 3977 (95.8%) out of 4150 people were examined. The prevalence of blindness from the study population was 1. 7% (95% confidence interval: 1.3–2.2%).There was no significant difference in prevalence of blindness between Han Chinese and people of Khazak and other minority ethnic groups, nor, between male and female. Cataract was the leading course (65.5%) of blindness and uncorrected refractive error was the most common cause of VI (36.3%) followed by myopic retinopathy. The most common barrier to cataract surgery was lack of awareness of service availability. -

1 IV. Xinjiang Security Measures and Conflict During the Commission’s 2016 reporting year, central and re- gional authorities continued to implement repressive security measures targeting Uyghur communities in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR). In October 2015, Yu Zhengsheng, a member of the Standing Committee of the Communist Party Cen- tral Committee Political Bureau, said authorities should focus on counterterrorism in order to achieve stability in the XUAR.1 Re- ports from international media and rights advocates documented arbitrary detentions,2 oppressive security checkpoints 3 and pa- trols,4 the forcible return of Uyghurs to the XUAR from other prov- inces as part of heightened security measures,5 and forced labor as a means to ‘‘ensure stability.’’ 6 Meng Jianzhu, head of the Party Central Committee Political and Legal Affairs Commission, repeat- edly stressed the need for authorities to ‘‘eradicate extremism,’’ in particular ‘‘religious extremism,’’ in the XUAR in conjunction with security measures.7 The U.S. Government and international ob- servers have asserted that XUAR officials have justified restric- tions on Uyghurs’ religious freedom by equating them with efforts to combat extremism.8 The Commission observed fewer reports of violent incidents in- volving ethnic or political tensions in the XUAR in the 2016 report- ing year than in previous reporting years,9 though it was unclear whether less violence occurred, or Chinese authorities prevented public disclosure of the information.

The Xinjiang Bingtuan in the Twenty-first Century
Asian Studies Review March 2009, Vol. 33, pp. 83–106 Neo Oasis: The Xinjiang Bingtuan in the Twenty-first Century THOMAS MATTHEW JAMES CLIFF* The Australian National University Introduction Military-agricultural colonies have long been a feature of Chinese frontier policy, but in the late twentieth century the bingtuan1 underwent an unprecedented transformation of form, function and rhetorical justification that raises questions regarding the contemporary bingtuan’s motives, mechanisms and role models. By examining these questions, this article sets out to determine the role that is being played by the twenty-first century bingtuan, and how it diverges from the military- agricultural colonies of the past. In 1982 Deng Xiaoping declared that the bingtuan ‘‘should be different from military farms’’ (Seymour, 2000, p. 182), and in 1998 the bingtuan (which translates as Corps) officially became a corporation (a move that I shall term Incorporation). These changes were not simply rhetorical. The bingtuan had by 1999 undergone a series of major structural changes. Whereas in 1954 the organisation was subject to the authority of the XUAR2 government, by 1999 it had been gradually promoted to the same bureaucratic status as the XUAR government. The bingtuan has occupied expanding areas of Xinjiang since 1954, and the bureaucratic promotion of 1998 effectively made it a ‘‘state within a state’’.3 Despite these changes, Chinese and Western authors continue to refer to the twenty-first century bingtuan as little removed from Dynastic era forms of military- agricultural colony. Within this discourse, there is an assumption that the bingtuan of 1954 is the same organisation as the bingtuan of 2005. -
