Digital dissent in the People's Republic: the language of protest and criticism in Sino-cyberspace

随着澳大利亚与中国关系的不断深化，澳大利亚必须深入了解中国因数字信息流而发生的变化有多快。该项目通过对数字异议的分析提供了这些知识。 该项目探讨了中华人民共和国的非国家行为者如何应对他们中间的紧迫问题。它还将揭示中国目前国家与公民社会之间的紧张关系。 更具体地说，该项目将通过关注审查、腐败、环境污染、治理改革以及民主和人权呼吁等重要问题，深化澳大利亚与中国的重要接触。

As Australia's relations with China continue to deepen, it is vital for Australia to acquire in-depth knowledge of how rapidly China is changing as a consequence of digital information flows. The project provides that knowledge through its analysis of digital dissent. The project explores how non-state players in the People's Republic respond and react to urgent problems in their midst. It will also shed light on present-day tensions in China between state and civil society. More specifically, the project will deepen Australia's critical engagement with China by focussing on such issues of consequence as censorship, corruption, environmental pollution, governance reform and calls for democracy and human rights.
