The 1989 student movement, which was part of a broader Chinese democratic movement known as Zhongguo minzhu yundong or just "Minyun," is seen as a progressive social movement and a pivotal turning point in modern Chinese history. Before and after June 4, 1989, domestic Chinese politics were starkly different. For better or worse, the significance of Minyun for contemporary Chinese history is widely recognized. The Falun Gong case, by contrast, more often than not goes unseen. When it is beheld, it is usually noted as a reactionary, semi-religious aberration in Chinese politics-as-usual. Falun Gong had spectacular but ephemeral importance in 1999 and shortly thereafter, but today remains a topic left mostly to the rare subfield specialist. This book takes the unconventional stance that these two movements ought to be apprised together"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Revision of author's thesis (doctoral)--Yale University, 2012, titled Sacred and secular protest in the Chinese diaspora : Falun Gong and the Chinese democracy movement. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 206-218) and index. 505 0 $a Protest made in global China -- Comparing Falun Gong and Minyun as movements -- The forgotten importance of Falun Gong -- Falun Gong : Qigong fad, new religion, protest movement -- Falun Gong's history of "stepping forward" -- Overseas Minyun : democracy through bureaucracy, factionalism, and asylum 610 20 $a Falun Gong (Organization) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr98001240 610 27 $a Falun Gong (Organization) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00736167 611 27 $a Tiananmen Square Incident (China : 1989) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01355149 650 0 $a Social movements $z China. 650 0 $a Protest movements $z China. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2018001103 650 0 $a Democratization $z China. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009123171 650 0 $a Transnationalism $x Political aspects $z China. 650 0 $a Chinese $x Political activity $z Foreign countries. 651 0 $a China $x Politics and government $y 1976-2002. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85024175 651 0 $a China $x Politics and government $y 2002- $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2004009498 651 0 $a China $x History $y Tiananmen Square Incident, 1989. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh89004135 650 7 $a Democratization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00890123 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 $a Protest movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01079826 650 7 $a Social movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122657 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 648 7 $a Since 1976 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217031400.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=396459100CF611EA99B9112E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
