IOWC Speaker Series - Zitian Sun, "Pitfalls of Popularity: The Radicalization Dynamics of the 1989 Tiananmen Student Movement"

6 Nov 2024 15:00

This paper explores why radical mobilizational tactics failed to achieve social and political changes during the 1989 Tiananmen Student Movement. By focusing on historical archives from students, elites, and state institutions, I argued that student radicalization inadvertently strengthens the hard-liner elites, facilitating the eventual repression.

Land and the Highland Clearances from the soil upwards

Abstract: Despite their significance, popular experience of the Highland Clearances, a series of mass evictions and forced migrations in Gaelic-speaking Scotland from c1750-c1886, remain understudied in both history and archaeology. Using a combination of landscape archaeology and oral testimony this study proposes a new way of understanding the relationship between evicted Gaelic people and the places they lived and worked.
