Abstract
In the Tarim Basin, the Uyghurs are the major ethnic group. Since 1949, the People's Republic of China (PRC) has administered this province, and Xinjiang has been dominated by the Chinese Communist Party, which has turned it into a hotbed of anti-Uyghur animosity. As Uyghurs are forced to detention camps and undergo "political reeducation" to pledge allegiance to the Chinese Communist Party, with harsh discipline, physical, and psychological punishment, Xinjiang has become one of the most closely watched places in the world. The Genocide Convention supports the finding of genocide according to the breach of every act inflicted upon the Uyghurs and prohibited in Article II.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
