This essay contains material protected under International and Federal Copyright Laws and Treaties. Any unauthorized reprint or use oF this Material is prohibited. Abstract The disruption oF the Sino-Soviet SuMMit was a significant, contributing Factor in the violent crackdown in Tiananmen Square on June 4, 1989. The suMMit was a landMark political event For the People’s Republic oF China (PRC), attracting worldwide media attention to Beijing. This presented a unique opportunity to show that China’s brand oF socialism was healthy and that the country was ready to solidiFy its iMproving relationship with the Soviet Union. Despite the advice oF Chinese intellectuals and governMental threats, the students Made a conscious decision to exploit, and thereby disrupt, the suMMit. The deMonstration coMpletely overshadowed the suMMit and created an international perception oF the Chinese governMent that called into doubt its very sovereignty. GovernMent leaders were huMiliated on the world stage. This huMiliation contributed to the decision to institute Martial law, which created an increasingly volatile atMosphere in Beijing. Paranoid oF potential protester violence created by Martial law, the governMent ordered troops to clear the Square. In doing so, thousands oF Chinese civilians were killed, Many oF theM students, resulting in one oF the greatest tragedies in the history oF Modern China. 2 INJURIOUS EXPLOITATION: THE EFFECTS OF THE SINO-SOVIET SUMMIT ON THE 1989 TIANANMEN SQUARE PROTESTS Beginning in 1960 and lasting nearly three decades, the relationship between the People’s Republic oF China (PRC) and the Soviet Union was Filled with tension.

  • The Political Repression of Chinese Students After Tiananmen A
    University of Nevada, Reno “To yield would mean our end”: The Political Repression of Chinese Students after Tiananmen A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History by Katherine S. Robinson Dr. Hugh Shapiro/Thesis Advisor May, 2011 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by KATHERINE S. ROBINSON entitled “To Yield Would Mean Our End”: The Political Repression Of Chinese Students After Tiananmen be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Hugh Shapiro, Ph.D, Advisor Barbara Walker, Ph.D., Committee Member Jiangnan Zhu, Ph.D, Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School May, 2011 i ABSTRACT Following the military suppression of the Democracy Movement, the Chinese government enacted politically repressive policies against Chinese students both within China and overseas. After the suppression of the Democracy Movement, officials in the Chinese government made a correlation between the political control of students and the maintenance of political power by the Chinese Communist Party. The political repression of students in China resulted in new educational policies that changed the way that universities functioned and the way that students were allowed to interact. Political repression efforts directed at the large population of overseas Chinese students in the United States prompted governmental action to extend legal protection to these students. The long term implications of this repression are evident in the changed student culture among Chinese students and the extensive number of overseas students who did not return to China.

  • Rough Justice in Beijing: Punishing the "Black Hands" of Tiananmen Square
    UCLA UCLA Pacific Basin Law Journal Title Rough Justice in Beijing: Punishing the "Black Hands" of Tiananmen Square Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7zz8w3wg Journal UCLA Pacific Basin Law Journal, 10(1) Author Munro, Robin Publication Date 1991 DOI 10.5070/P8101021984 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California ROUGH JUSTICE IN BEIJING* Punishing the "Black Hands" of Tiananmen Square Robin Munro** 1. INTRODUCTION During late spring and early summer, namely, from mid-April to early June of 1989, a tiny handful of people exploited student unrest to launch a planned, organized and premeditated political turmoil, which later developed into a counterrevolutionary rebel- lion in Beijing, the capital. Their purpose was to overthrow the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party and subvert the so- cialist People's Republic of China.... In order to achieve thorough victory, we should mobilize the people completely, strengthen the people's democratic dictator- ship and spare no effort to ferret out the counterrevolutionary rioters. We should uncover instigators and rebellious conspira- tors, punish the organizers and schemers of the unrest and the counterrevolutionary rebellion ...and focus the crackdown on a handful of principal culprits and diehards who refuse to repent.' (Chen Xitong, Mayor of Beijing, on June 30, 1989.) In late 1990, the Chinese government brought formal charges against several dozen of the most prominent leaders of the May- June 1989 Tiananmen Square pro-democracy movement. Trials held in the first two months of 1991 have resulted in sentences rang- ing from two to thirteen years for students and intellectuals.

  • Scar Literature”
    Literature as a source of Socio-cultural studies - Study of the Chinese society of the Cultural Revolution through “Scar Literature” Abstract: Literature reflects socio-cultural-political realities of the society. It indeed reflects the good values, oppressions, bad times, social discrimination and other ills of the society. Literature mirrors the social oppressions with an intension to make people realize and amend their mistakes. Thus a positive change can take place in the society. However some literature excludes the social exploitations and thus fails to expose the harsh realities. The ancient land of China which has been producing literature since the very beginning has come up with various literary genre. The Chinese literary work has enjoyed very prestigious position in the literary circle. Propaganda literature was also core part of Chinese literature in 1960’s. This paper aims to look at the literary genre of Scar literature with a brief introduction of Chinese literature of previous era. Key Words: Cultural Revolution, Propaganda Literature, Scar Literature. 30 Literature as a source of Socio-cultural studies - Study of the Chinese society of the Cultural Revolution through “Scar Literature” Introduction: Literature is a very old word and it is very difficult to stress its exact origin. However many scholars opine that literature has originated in West and then flourished in Greece, Egypt where the ancient civilization started. The content of the literary works varied from time to time and place to place as per the social condition of that particular place and era. Earlier most of the literary works were on Gods and Goddess.
