Zero Tolerance analyzes the cycles of repression and violence that grip Xinjiang, clarifying the policies and interests that drive China's mistreatment of its Uyghur minority.

Recenzje

'In Zero Tolerance, Potter and Wang provide a sophisticated but accessible analysis of China's security policy regarding its Uyghur minority.  Using rich historical analysis, discussion of past and current Chinese government policy trends and analysis of unique data, the authors paint a chilling portrait of repression and violent backlash as China expands its engagement internationally.  In the book, Potter and Wang convincingly argue that as China expands its relations with other countries, it will become increasingly vulnerable to domestic extremist threats. This will reinforce China's trend of repression against Uyghurs and dissidents. Presenting a chilling vision of the future, Zero Tolerance is a must read for anyone seeking to understand contemporary Chinese international relations and domestic security policy.' James A. Piazza, Liberal Arts Professor of Political Science, The Pennsylvania State University
