The 1989 pro-democracy movement in China constituted a huge challenge to the survival of the Chinese communist regime. This book assesses the impact of the movement, and of the ensuing repression on the political evolution of the People's Republic of China. It discusses how the events of 1989 are remembered and have affected China's international relations and diplomacy; how human rights, law enforcement, policing, and liberal thought have developed over two decades.
