Foreword
The Taiwan Foundation for Democracy has been in existence for 15 years on a mission to enhance public appreciation of democracy and human rights. This annual China Human Rights Report, now in its 14th incarnation, is hereby presented for you to peruse. Soon after the Foundation’s inception in June 2003, the board of directors assigned a high priority to tracking human rights status in China -- through systematic analysis and prudent comparison -- for insights about its democratic and human rights advancement. Such a long-term commitment is demonstrated in publication of the China Human Rights Report year after year in both Chinese and English editions to cater to audiences in Taiwan and abroad. The notion of human rights entails multi-faceted interpretations, as seen in the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), as well as the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). Along a similar vein, this China Human Rights Report 2017, as in previous years, examines situations in China against the rules and standards expounded in the ICCPR and ICESCR to ensure objectivity and completeness. The authors of individual chapters, have gleaned publicly available information in print or over the web to identify events and trends to shed light on human rights progress in China against the backdrop of official white papers, regulations, policies and executive orders. There were six chapters in previous editions of the China Human Rights Report: social, political, judicial, economic and environmental, education and cultural rights as well as situations of Taiwanese business people in China. For this 2017 edition, we append two more chapters to explore human rights status
