The Legacy of Tiananmen Square at 30

 

June 6, 2019, 12:00-1:15 PM

Hoover Institution, 1399 New York Ave NW, Suite 500, Washington, DC 20005

 

The Tiananmen Square democracy protests in 1989, and the subsequent brutal crushing of the movement by the Chinese government on June 4, remain one of the key moments in China's modern history. On the 30th anniversary of the protests and the crackdown, what is the legacy of Tiananmen Square, and how has it shaped modern China? How did the Communist Party maintain its grip on power, even while losing legitimacy in the eyes of many at home and abroad? Why has there been no follow-on democracy movement in China over the succeeding third of a century? In an era of populism and nationalism around the world, are there any prospects for a Chinese pluralism that embraces democracy?

 

Join Hoover fellow Michael Auslin, who will discuss the legacy of Tiananmen Square with famed Chinese democracy activist and former political prisoner Wei Jingsheng, Claremont McKenna College Professor Minxin Pei, and Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation Executive Director Marion Smith.

30年后的天安门广场遗产

 

2019年6月6日, 中午12点至下午1:15

胡佛研究所,1399 New York Ave NW, Suite 500, Washington, DC 20005

 

1989年在中国北京天安门广场爆发的民主抗议活动,以及随后中国政府于6月4日对该运动的残酷镇压,迄今依然是中国近代历史中的关键转折点之一。在该抗议运动及对其的镇压30周年之际,天安门广场的遗产是什么?它如何塑造了当今的中国?中国共产党,尽管在众多中外人士看来业已丧失其合法性,又是如何能够抓住政权不放的?中国为什么在接下来的三分之一个世纪里没有后续的民主运动?在这个民粹主义和民族主义于世界各地盛行的时代,中国的民粹主义有可能拥抱民主吗?

 

胡佛研究员迈克尔·奥斯林,著名中国民主活动家和前政治犯魏京生,克莱蒙特·麦肯纳学院教授裴敏欣,以及共产主义受难者纪念基金会执行主任马里昂·史密斯,将一起探讨天安门广场的遗产。欢迎各界人士踊跃参加。
