China's High-Tech Repression Against Uyghurs : Novel Theoretical Insights
Other Available Formats
Overview
This book explores the socio-spatial impacts of China's high-tech repression against Uyghurs both within and beyond its borders. The study is built on surveys, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions with the members of Uyghur diaspora in T rkiye. Findings indicate that high-tech repression minimizes the social life in East Turkestan. This type of governance aims to achieve a complete erasure of privacy and individual agency by strategically leveraging technology. While Uyghurs who escaped to T rkiye appear to gain relative freedom, our findings indicate that with China's transnational repression mostly applied through Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), they live in a social space which functions as a quasi-spatial extension of East Turkestan.
