Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores the intense debates in China during the 1980s regarding economic and political liberalization, highlighting the public's push for reform. Following the Tiananmen Square protests, the Communist Party actively erased these discussions from collective memory, shaping a narrative that stifled alternative visions for China's future. Gewirtz connects this historical suppression to the contemporary climate of historical policing under Xi Jinping, revealing the long-term impacts of these actions on China's political landscape.
