  • FORCED LABOR EXPORTS from CHINA: UPDATE No.1
    September 19, 1991 FORCED LABOR EXPORTS FROM CHINA: UPDATE No.1 Since April 1991, when Asia Watch issued its report on how prison labor in China is used to produce goods for export1, several developments have taken place: -- the Chinese government initially denied that any such exports had ever occurred, but later, in the face of mounting evidence, admitted that some prison-made goods could have reached the US through "loopholes in management;"2 -- new evidence has been uncovered which further validates Asia Watch's original assertion that the policy of exporting prison-made goods has, in fact, firm central government approval. The evidence includes a confidential set of guidelines, dating from 1979, from the Ministry of Public Security specifying how such foreign sales are to be arranged. It also includes a number of recently issued English-language sales promotion brochures from labor reform camp enterprises themselves; -- the Bush administration has announced a stepped-up investigation through the Customs Service of Chinese products and stated that any goods found to have been made by prison labor would be denied entry to the US. Thus far, no goods have been banned from entry. The Chinese ReReactionaction On April 29, 1991, ten days after the Asia Watch report was issued, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman called the charges that China used cheap prison labor to expand its exports "groundless."3 A week later, the Chinese ambassador to the US, Zhu Qizhen, insisted that Chinese economic and trade departments "have never granted these reform-through-labor units any right whatsoever to engage in foreign trade."4 1 News from Asia Watch, "Prison Labor in China," April 19, 1991.

Smith International Center for Jefferson Studies Saturday, October 28, 2017 CO-SPONSORS American Academy of Diplomacy Washington, D.C. Robert H. Smith International Center for Jefferson Studies at Monticello Charlottesville, Virginia CO-SPONSORS The American Academy of Diplomacy The American Academy of Diplomacy was founded in 1983 by Ambassadors Ellsworth Bunker, U. Alexis Johnson, and John J. McCloy to explore ways in which persons who had served in positions of major responsibility could cooperate to promote the highest standards in the practice of American diplomacy. Today, the Academy is dedicated to strengthening the resources and tools America brings to managing its diplomatic challenges, and accomplishes this through targeted outreach programs, distinguished awards, and robust, practical, research-based publications. Through these activities, the Academy promotes an understanding of the importance of diplomacy to serving our nation and enhancing America’s standing in the world. The Robert H. Smith International Center for Jefferson Studies at Monticello From its beginning in 1994, the dual purpose of the Robert H. Smith International Center for Jefferson Studies has been research and education – to foster Jefferson scholarship and to disseminate its findings. The activities of the Center are diverse and multidisciplinary. It is a residential site for individual Jefferson scholars and teachers, as well as a venue for lectures, seminars, and conferences. The Center seeks a central role in the ongoing study of Thomas Jefferson internationally by supporting a wide range of inquiry; by building a network of scholars, teachers, and resources; by helping to define new areas of investigation; and by promoting the application of new technologies to Jefferson scholarship.
