Summary of Revenge of the Forbidden City by James W. Tong PDF

By 1999, the Falungong religious movement had spread widely and broadly throughout China. While on the surface its ideology of spiritual and physical cultivation did not seem threatening, the Chinese government felt otherwise. Revenge of the Forbidden City is the definitive account of China's response to Falungong. As James Tong shows, the episode tells us a great deal about the Chinese state's political institutions, its media apparatus, and its formidable ability to crush dissent. The result is a book that will be essential for any scholar interested in how the Chinese state actually operates.
