| Summary / Abstract (Note) | On May 29, "2012, Xu Zhiyong published an article titled “New Citizens Movement" (sometimes translated New Civil Movement), it is presented here in English for the first time with the permission of Xu Zhiyong (translated by an anonymous friend of the blog). Since publishing this essay Xu has twice been detained illegally, but, unfortunately, this has not received attention in the international press. Yaxue translated his account of the first disappearance (Xu has disappeared several times over his career as
an outspoken human rights lawyer, including an incident just one week before he published this). This essay and Xu’s activism is truly deserving of further coverage overseas as it offers a comprehensive path for reform in China. |
