In view of Chinäs expansive economic policy and theever increasing importance of global trade relations,the question of human rights often lags far behind. TheUyghurs, in particular, who live in northwestern China,have suffered discrimination and oppression for manyyears and fear for their culture and ethnic identity. TheChinese government, which has always justified itsrepressive policies with the assertion that it is protectingstate security, has drastically increased the pressure andsurveillance in recent years and has locked hundreds ofthousands of Uyghurs and members of other Muslimminorities in so-called re-education camps. But evenbefore that, when the world was still barely aware of thefate of the Uyghurs, there were constant injustices.The stories in this book take a look behind the scenes.They accompany a number of Uyghurs in their dailylives and let the reader participate in their harrowingexperiences.
