Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The Tian'anmen events of 1989 (suppression of the democracy movement) have become a pivotal turnaround in recent Chinese history. The idea of a profound democratization and liberalization of Chinese society (as experienced a few months later in communist Easter Europe) has failed. We will use photos, documentaries and available literature to analyze this movement, its slogans and backgrounds to acquire basic knowledge about the events and the debates.
