POLSCI 387 Tiananmen Square

The question for essay one is "How do you judge the students and the Chinese government in the Tiananmen Square movement in 1989?" 

The essay should be 3-5 pages, double-spaced, with 12-point Times New Roman font and 1-inch margins.

Students should synthesize the readings and comprehend the materials. Students are expected to develop and present clear and coherent arguments and their own perspectives on the questions.

The reading for the essay is attached on the pdf below. 

Also you should watch the documentary China, a Century of Revolution Part 3 from 54:00 to the end. You can find it on YouTube. 

You can also use outside sources. I strongly recommend one more documentary The Gate of Heavenly Peace. It's also on YouTube
