"I have no enemies and feel no hatred, not even against the police officers and judges who deprive me of my freedom. Hatred corrodes the wisdom and the conscience of man. An attitude that is rooted in hostility can poison a whole nation "
example, would have Liu Xiaobo Verteidgungsrede should be before the judge hold it could not ultimately. The latest in the award of the Nobel Prize famous Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo to him is in effect because of "subversion of state power" sentenced to eleven years in prison. The chines. Media these days is little or no report about the civil rights, and then only in a negative way. There's been times quickly by a "traitor, who writes for money from Western countries, anti-China articles" or an "element that threatens the stability of an entire country," the speech. Surprised? Hardly. For China's media are determined to a large part in party hands darüber kann auch nicht die immens große Diversität an Print- und Fernsehmedien hinwegtäuschen.
Chinas Medien unterliegen einem strikten Zensursystem, welches großteils unglaublich präzise und effizient arbeitet. Staatliche Fernsehsender, Nachrichtenagenturen oder Zeitungen sind von Haus aus als Sprachrohr der Partei auch über die Staatsgrenzen Chinas hinweg zu verstehen. Die wenigen privaten Unternehmen passen sich mehr oder weniger freiwillig einem System der Selbstzensur an. Denn anders als oftmals vermutet, werden in China keineswegs alle Medien zunächst vom Parteibüro nach sensiblen oder regierungskritischen Nachrichten kontrolliert und ggf. zensiert – that would be at such a large country like China with such a wide range of media in a fast time like today completely impossible.
Instead, the party relies on self-censorship of journalists, which effectively means that journalists have in principle and in theory absolute editorial freedom of expression. If, however, seem a published article in the eyes of the party ventured to the affected message is immediately censored (eg, blocked on the internet) or if it is no longer possible (eg in the case of print media) the data subject, or even the whole editorial with a hefty fine occupied. This system worked reasonably well, as affected individuals have the power of the party and its censorship apparatus immediately felt in the form of lack of money for himself.
looks much more complicated in the whole enterprise has with the Internet, a fast-paced and globally networked media. Even if the so-called "Great Chinese Firewall" - a program which Internet users with chines. IP address to access various Web sites critical of the government sometimes denied - is considered one of the most sophisticated facilities of its kind worldwide, had the chines. Government have already noted that the Internet is only 100% pure control may, if it abolishes the same train fully. What looks at first glance at the present time as a utopia, in China, at least for a time last year, has become reality: unrest in the northwestern province of Xinjiang one came from the government to the conclusion that the troublemakers on platforms such as Facebook Twitter and had organized a flash. Then said Web services have been censored in China and subsequently in the entire province of Xinjiang for five months (!) switched the entire web offline.
The true motives for China's increasingly strict over time expectant Internet censorship are of course other and were presented in this blog in the past already too well. This proves particularly the "duality" of chineschen Internet. Duality in the sense that on the one side there (mind you western) Web services like Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, Wikipedia (though only partly blocked.) Are censored, Blogspot including various plausible reasons, on the other hand, each Chinese counterparts, each of these platforms under direct control of the chines. Government are available. It is held Facebook "RenRen" or "xiaonei" instead of Youtube "youku" rather than Wikipedia "baik" rather than Twitter "fanfou" and instead of westerly blog or services such as "sina blog". Meanwhile, China even has its own navigation map service, even though the competitor is Google Maps freely available in China. But the idea behind its own based map service that is unpleasant and therefore politically contentious-like place names (eg Senkaku islands see conflict ) "Sinisi" do that.
The typical Chinese Internet user is missing, should really have relatively little. Nevertheless, the business is booming lately with proxy servers (explained trivial: server, replace the chines with a foreign IP address. and thus allow unrestricted Internet access) so much as never before. Even if the government attempts to those services more effectively and their sites once they were discovered, immediately censored to prevent further downloads, bit it is part of the party but the teeth on the Internet and began after a while the problem from another angle address. Based on the aforementioned finding that the Internet can only check complete if we abolish it completely, the government announced in 2009 the development of a software called "Green Dam to. This software aims to protect Internet users from "viruses and malware and should of 2010 on each PC / laptop der in China verkauft wird, vorinstalliert werden. Bei Bürgerrechtlern schrillten sofort die Alarmglocken, da sie in der Software ein weiteres Mittel zur effektiveren Zensur von unerwünschten Websites sahen. Überraschenderweise verlief das vielversprechende Projekt im Sand. Nach wenigen Monaten kam es zu „Finanzierungsengpässen“ und kurz darauf schließlich zum temporären Entwicklungsstop ehe Anfang Dezember 2010 eine kalifornische Softwarefirma namens Cybersitter (eine Firma, welche Internetfiltersoftware für Kinder herstellt) Anklage erhob und Chinas Regierung beschuldigte tausende Zeilen des eigenen Quellcodes kopiert zu haben.
Somit bleibt die Zensur the Internet remains the biggest problem of the party. Because had cases like that of Liu Xiaobo occurred 20 years earlier, could have been part of the government all the Nobel awards ceremony and the arrest of Liu's own people probably conceal completely. Today, the message already submitted minutes after the news was announced like a wildfire on several Chinese news groups, forums and blogs. China's government reacted quickly affected posts were deleted on the internet, emails and SMS with the words "Liu Xiaobo," never made it to the recipient. A similar technique was already in the milk scandal in 2008 used, as you all pulled out of China sent mails using the keywords "China" and "Milk" in short, from the market. This aspect clearly demonstrates the large effective radius of the chines. Censorship system that includes not only traditional Nachrichenmedien such as television, newspapers and the Internet, but also communication media such as telephony.
But while on the one hand China's increasingly strict censorship seems to stir within the party has first resistance. Only in October of this year, some older party officials called for the stop and a nervous Zensiererei introduce new information age. After all, whether in Hong Kong too liberal all were in order and the party always dreaded "unrest" in the event of further political liberalization there so far failed as well. Furthermore, calls for a uniform law on the press, party officials and former editor of the People's Daily, Hu Jiwei's claim so far as a press law was essential "prepare to meet the arbitrary whims of politicians at the head of the party to an end" (!) Because such circumstances, a professional job would make it impossible for a journalist. And: "We can not again the censorship system in the name of the sole Strengthen the party's claim to power. [...] Our present system is that of England from 315 years and that comparable to that of France 129 years ago. " addition is a free directory service between Macau, Hong Kong and mainland China, freedom of expression in online forums / blogs, and abolition of 5 Mao's Army (a whole lot of people, the equivalent to the government for each pro-government post in an internet forum 5 Mao (about 50 € cents paid) wins) is required.
The fact that the current government is not willing to accept these demands or to diskuttieren at least shows the way with such a form der Meinungsverschiedenheit umgegangen wird: Wenige Minuten nachdem der besagte Vorschlag auf dem Webportal Sina.com gepostet worden war, war er auch schon wieder zensiert, machte aber bereits via Email und diverse Interetforen weiterhin die Runde.
Liu Xiaobo hat in seiner Gefängniszelle von all diesen Entwicklungen vermutlich nichts mitbekommen. Wahrscheinlich weiß er noch nicht einmal, dass er den Nobelpreis in wenigen Tagen übernehmen sollte und dass er ein ganzes Land polarisiert. Zwar wissen viele Chinesen mittlerweile von der Nobepreisentscheidung, wirklich kümmern tut es aber nur wenige. Allerdings sind gleichzeitig viele Menschen innerhalb Chinas sensibler become. Sensitive handled in view of the fact in China the government with information. "Meanwhile already understand 20% of the chines. Internet users what, Fan Qiang '[Bypass chines. Fire Wall, n.] means and are determined to do so " said Zhou Shuguang, a famous chines. Blogger and freelance journalist. The people had become more attentive about their own identity and now use programs that distort their actual IP address after they discover that the supposedly anonymous and free Internet in China is not so anonymous and free.
Article 35 of the Chinese Constitution guarantees citizens freedom of expression, press freedom, the right to assembly, free and legal process right to demonstrate. Summa was summarum Liu Xiaobo, however, convicted in style of an old Chinese proverb: "kill the chicken to scare the monkey" , they state say an example. But people are starting to understand precisely through such examples slowly that their rights are trampled underfoot in truth, it can not disguise the thousands of messages on an incredible economic growth next year. And as if this were not enough, accuses the West (Particularly Europe) in exchange for good economic relations with China, its principles of freedom and self determination over the side. Because in order not to annoy China just now, numerous states have their participation in the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony in a few days off at short notice. Similarly, the German president has Wulff, who had announced shortly after the announcement of the decision of the Nobelpreiskommitees although full support for Liu Xiaobo, now out of the blue but not more interested in the Nobel awards ceremony and the official invitation of Germany falling behind. Only a German delegation will be sent to Beijing not to offend.
In the meantime, cheers already in the chines. "Peoples Daily" with a literal "victory over 19 nations who will not attend the Nobel ceremony," - headline. In addition, the press spokeswoman for the chines. Foreign Ministry: "Most of the international community does not participate in the Nobel awards ceremony and China will not change his mind like a flag waving in the wind by the interference of some clowns who are against China." without comment.
