Human Rights in China

China has entered the spotlight again with the expected execution of a British citizen on the 29th December. This has attracted much media attention and organizations such as Amnesty and Reprieve which I have discussed in previous posts are campaigning to overturn the decision. However, because of all this attention, I have decided to concentrate over the next few weeks on the general human rights situation in China rather than this particular case. The site this week was founded by Chinese students in 1989 but has much international input. It mainly is a source of information but it does have a couple of actions although one is now out of date but is of interest since it was designed to accompany the 2008 Olympics.
