Griffith Asia Institute Research Seminar |The Xinjiang Emergency: Exploring the Context and Implications of China's Mass 'Re-Education' of Turkic-Muslims

In this presentation, Dr Michael Ckarke, The Australian National University (ANU) provides an exploration of a number of critical questions with respect to the Xinjiang emergency: what factors (historical, political/ideological, social) have contributed to the CCP's turn to mass "re-education" at this juncture; the implications of the detention centres for the governance of Xinjiang (and China more broadly); and the implcations for China's foreign policy.
