Abstract | When Bill Clinton, the President of United States (US) arrives at late June 1998, he may be surprised at how China's intellectuals, with their latest flourishes, are fostering an environment conducive to a more open and advanced debate on political change, a topic that has been largely taboo since the Tiananmen trauma in June 1989. Amid a freewheeling debate over liberalization, Jiang Zemin wrestles with democratic reform. The road to democracy and intellectual movements of China are also listed in the article. |
