Tiananmen Square stokes patriotic education
Last week, I discussed the prelude to the Tiananmen Square uprising and the ruthless government crackdown on June 4, 1989. The slaughter of students and their supporters who gathered in Beijing in the spring of 1989 and occupied Tiananmen Square for seven weeks made the world recoil in horror and isolated China. Deng Xiaoping with the support of other Chinese Communist Party leaders ordered the violent crackdown, worried because the protests had spread to 400 cities throughout the country. In their view, this was a matter of regime survival and therefore a price that had to be paid. Deng's camp also believed that Party Secretary General Zhao Ziyang was somehow involved in instigating the protests and intended to use this popular movement to sideline them and adopt political reforms they feared would precipitate the party's demise.
