Reviews
'This lucid, thoughtful, and often riveting account by Jeremy Brown, a leading social historian of the People's Republic of China (PRC), revisits almost every dimension of the dramatic upheaval of 1989 and forces us to examine afresh what we thought we already knew.' Andrew G. Walder, Journal of Cold War Studies, 'Brown's June Fourth challenges our understanding of the 1989 Tiananmen protests that continue to haunt China today in a vivid account, richly documented, well-told and thoughtfully analyzed. This will be the standard history of Tiananmen for a generation.' Timothy Cheek, author of The Intellectual in Modern Chinese History

Synopsis
In this vivid new social history of the Tiananmen protests, Beijing massacre, and nationwide crackdown of 1989, Jeremy Brown explores the key turning points of the crisis in China and shows how the massacre and its aftermath were far from inevitable., The Tiananmen protests and Beijing massacre of 1989 were a major turning point in recent Chinese history. In this new analysis of 1989, Jeremy Brown tells the vivid stories of participants and victims, exploring the nationwide scope of the democracy movement and the brutal crackdown that crushed it. At each critical juncture in the spring of 1989, demonstrators and decision makers agonized over difficult choices and saw how events could have unfolded differently. The alternative paths that participants imagined confirm that bloodshed was neither inevitable nor necessary. Using a wide range of previously untapped sources and examining how ordinary citizens throughout China experienced the crackdown after the massacre, this ambitious social history sheds fresh light on events that continue to reverberate in China to this day.
