Online Corruption-Reporting, Internet Censorship, and the Limits of Responsive Authoritarianism
Online Corruption-Reporting, Internet Censorship, and the Limits of Responsive Authoritarianism by Jack Hoskins BA, University of Victoria, 2015 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of History © Jack Hoskins, 2017 University of Victoria All rights reserved.

It argues that this endeavour has proven largely unsuccessful, and what success it has enjoyed is not sustainable. The reason for this failure is that prospective complainants are offered little incentive to report corruption via official channels. Complaints on social media require less effort and are more likely to lead to investigations than complaints delivered straight to the government, though neither channel is particularly effective. The regime’s concern for social stability has led to widespread censorship of corruption discussion on social media, as well as a slew of laws and regulations banning the behaviour. Though it is difficult to predict what the long- term results of these policies will be, it seems likely that the regime’s ability to collect corruption data will remain limited. -

BARMÉ* ABSTRACT: This essay takes as its starting point the precipitous fall of Bo Xilai in March 2012 and discusses the context of the abiding significance of China’s red legacies, in particular Maoism, in understanding the People’s Republic of China today. While thinkers labour to salvage Marxism, the red legacy constitutes a body of cultural, intellectual, and linguistic practices that are profoundly ingrained in institutional behaviour in China. This study explores to what extent this version of the red legacy leeches out the power of other modes of left- leaning critique and independent thought, and abets the party-state in its pursuit of a guided, one-party neo-liberal economic agenda. KEYWORDS: Bo Xilai, Wang Lijun, Mao Zedong, Zhang Musheng, red culture, Maoism, Chinese history, neo-liberalism, New Left, Children of Yan’an. his essay is part of a larger project that relates to “The China Story,” (1) I would further affirm earlier scholarship that locates the origins and evo - but herein I will limit myself to a consideration of a few areas in which lution of what would become High Maoism from the 1950s in cultural and TI believe we can find traces of the abiding, and beguiling, heritage of political genealogies of the late-Qing and Republican eras. -
Marketizing Media Control in Post-Tiananmen China

Up until now, scholars and authors have overlooked how the enormous social and economic changes that China has undergone since economic reform has affected media control. This dissertation explores how such changes influence media control in China. It first examines the Chinese political economy and then focuses on studying China‟s media, which has gone through considerable change since economic reform. -
Freedom of Expression
II. Human Rights FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION Findings • The Chinese government and Communist Party’s pervasive information controls contributed to the severity of the outbreak in late 2019 of a novel coronavirus and the resulting COVID– 19 pandemic. Official suppression of information about the out- break, particularly authorities’ censorship of the media, and actions to silence frontline hospital personnel who sought to in- form community members, sparked outrage in China and led to unprecedented calls by Chinese citizens for freedom of speech, along with criticism of the censorship system in China. • Several Chinese media outlets, particularly China Business News, Caixin, and Beijing News, published critical investiga- tive reports, interviews, and editorials about the government’s response to the COVID–19 outbreak. While many of these re- ports were subsequently censored by the government, several citizen-led projects to archive disappearing reports emerged. Public security authorities detained three individuals from one such project, Terminus 2049. State and Party media pushed a positive narrative about the government’s efforts to contain the spread, featuring President and Party General Secretary Xi Jinping as ‘‘commander’’ of the ‘‘people’s war’’ against the virus. • Reporters Without Borders’ (RSF) 2020 press freedom index ranked China the fourth worst country in the world for press freedom (177 out of 180) for the second year in a row. RSF pointed to ongoing censorship, harassment and detention of journalists, and the pervasive spread of surveillance as key fac- tors in its assessment. China imprisoned the most journalists in the world in 2019, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ). -

In addition, I certify that all information sources and literature used are indicated in the thesis. Signature of Student ______________________ LAUREN GORFINKEL i Acknowledgements This study would not have come to fruition without my expert team of supervisors. Professor Louise Edwards with her infectious enthusiasm first got me on track to begin a PhD and saw it all the way to completion. Along the road, she provided valuable feedback on drafts and encouraged me to partake in a variety of activities that benefited not just the project but my understanding of broader issues surrounding it. When Louise moved to Hong Kong, I was exceptionally fortunate to have on board the equally expert and energetic professor, Wanning Sun, who had just arrived at UTS. Wanning‘s expertise in Chinese media and identity was vital in helping me form the theoretical and analytical framework that became the backbone of this work. -
