La “guerra contra el terror” de China en Xinjiang y la asimilación de la “nueva frontera”
Este artículo examina cómo la República Popular China ha utilizado el discurso global sobre el terrorismo posterior al 11S para legitimar políticas represivas en la región uigur de Xinjiang, anexionada como “nueva frontera” durante la dinastía la Qing (1644-1911). El estudio argumenta que, aprovechando el contexto geopolítico dominante, el gobierno chino reconfiguró retrospectivamente sus tensiones históricas con Xinjiang como un frente interno e…
The Xinjiang Emergency: Exploring the Causes and Consequences of China’s Mass Detention of Uyghurs, edited by Michael Clarke
Impaired, “easy prey” saved by the she-empowering state: Official narratives of “Xinjiang women” in China’s “People’s War on Terror”
Feminist approaches to international security have revealed persistent gendered stereotypes in the construction of women in contexts of political violence and terrorism, including the Global War on Terror. Acknowledging the parallelism with the United States-led enterprise in its endeavor to “save” a female population and re-posing one of the most significant questions in gender-informed security studies, this article asks “Where are the women in…
Violence, Discourse and Politics in Chinas Uyghur Region: The Terroristization of Xinjiang
Violence, Discourse, and Politics in China’s Uyghur Region: The Terroristization of Xinjiang
This book investigates how Uyghur-related violent conflict and Uyghur ethnic minority identity, religion, and the Xinjiang region, more broadly, became constituted as a ‘terrorism’ problem for the Chinese state. Building on securitization theory, Critical Terrorism Studies (CTS), and the scholarly definitional debate on terrorism, it develops the concept of terroristization as a critical analytical framework for the study of historical processes …
The Not-So-Terrorist Conflict: Analytical Deception and Political Delusion in China’s Framing of Uyghur-related Violent Events
Cet article analyse la définition systématique adoptée par l’État chinois des troubles violents liés aux Ouïghours au Xinjiang comme relevant du « terrorisme ». L’étude attire l’attention sur le fait que les incidents violents en lien avec les Ouïghours dans la région du Xinjiang – et ailleurs en Chine – ne sont souvent pas aussi prémédités, politiques et aveugles que le suggère le terme « terroriste » par lequel l’État chinois les désigne. Entre…
Making sense of terrorism: A narrative approach to the study of violent events
How does violence become understood as terrorism? In this article, we show how a narrative approach to the study of violent events offers a conceptually productive way to understand the process of “seeing” an event as a terrorist act, one that explicitly integrates the phenomenology of violence. While the collective practice of defining terrorism in academia and the policy arena has struggled to produce a universal definition, we identify a set o…
Old ‘counter-revolution’, new ‘terrorism: Historicizing the framing of violence in Xinjiang by the Chinese state
China has declared a war on terrorism in Xinjiang, identifying violence in the region as a top security threat. However, what nowadays is officially constructed as ‘terrorism’ was framed as ‘counter-revolution’ in the past. Informed by the concept of macrosecuritization and the agenda of critical terrorism studies, this article examines the changing nature of Chinese state framing of violence in Xinjiang. Through a comparative analysis of the dis…
