Presents a view from the grassroots of the 1989 student and mass movement in China and its tragic consequences. Here are eyewitness and participant accounts expressed through wall posters, students speeches, movement declarations, handbills, and other documents.

Since 1979 China's leaders have introduced reforms that have lessened the state's hold over the lives of ordinary citizens. By examining the growth in individual rights, the public sphere, democratic processes, and pluralization, Ogden seeks to answer questions concerning the relevance of liberal democratic ideas for China.
