Terrorism and Counter-terrorism in China
Domestic and Foreign Policy Dimensions
Description:... China's problem with terrorism has historically been considered an outgrowth of Beijing's efforts to integrate the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region into the People's Republic of China. Since the end of the Cold War, however, this internal dynamic has converged with an evolving external environment, stimulating the development of linkages between Uyghur separatism & terrorism & broader terrorist movements in Central Asia, South Asia & the Middle East. This text brings together some of the leading experts on Chinese terrorism, offering a systematic, scholarly assessment of the country's approaches to this threat.
