- Abstract
- Peace studies in China has had meaningful initial developments, but the sustainability
of the fields development has been constrained by an authoritarian political
atmosphere. Rights and justice are core issues in peace studies, but these remain
unaddressed in China. Thus, this article highlights studies on rights movements as de
facto peace studies in an authoritarian setting and compares the movement among
the middle class and that of peasants/workers, which can help us understand current
contradictions and disharmony in Chinese society. Maintaining the stability of a
turbulent society is becoming a crucial agenda for the Chinese state. Accordingly,
studies on rights movements will become increasingly important
