Dissidents and Dictators

The Transnational Repression of the Uyghur Diaspora

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has increased its efforts to stifle dissent beyond its borders, discreetly intimidating individuals from various religious, political, and dissenting groups. The Uyghur diaspora's experience of such repression has worsened since the 2016 crackdown, leaving Uyghurs across the globe facing the pressure of state violence and harassment even in their supposed places of refuge. In this episode, we hear from Yalkun Uluyol, David Tobin, and Rushan Abbas as they shed further light on the extent of the CCP’s efforts to project its authoritarian rule beyond its border. Featured Guests: Yalkun Uluyol, research assistant at Koc University David Tobin, lecturer in East Asian studies at the University of Sheffield Rushan Abbas, founder and executive director at the Campaign for Uyghurs
