Human Rights Colloquium with Dr. @tengbiao.bsky.social and Polina Kurakina on Transnational Repression and its Impact on the Global Order. A key topic for human rights research and current FAU CHREN projects. Full recap: www.humanrights.fau.eu/2025/11/02/h...

我提出了“高科技极权主义”这一概念。先进技术的运用——社会信用体系、“防火长城”、甚至DNA采集——使中国成为前所未有的“数字歹托邦”。乔治·奥威尔《1984》中的监控水平已经实现，甚至在某些方面被超越。 借助人工智能、人脸与语音识别、大数据，警方甚至可以在抗议发生之前就将你抓捕。当局在行动实施之前就已掌握你的计划。北京数字极权主义的目标，是在每一个角落、每一个时刻，控制每一个人的一举一动。这是一种全面、无处不在且极为高效的控制。 www.facebook.com/tengbiaochin...

The rapid development of digital technologies has enabled unprecedented forms of state control. Chinese govt has effectively utilized AI, big data, surveillance systems, and digital platforms to strengthen its high-tech, 2.0 version of totalitarian governance. www.humanrights.fau.de/events/human...

以色列前外交部长：以色列的加沙战争全面胜利幻觉 caus.com/all-articles... 没有哪个占领能持续永远。从法国到英国，曾经的殖民强权最终都认识到，殖民带来的是不断递减的回报，于是纷纷放弃帝国计划。 今天，以色列几乎成了唯一一个仍然统治被压迫民族、剥夺他们权利并侵占其土地的“白人强权”，而巴勒斯坦是世界上最后一个还在为摆脱占领而斗争的民族。 但巴勒斯坦并非遥远的殖民地，这里与以色列毗邻，是以色列的历史故土，这种地理上的贴近不仅带来了现实的安全隐患，也加剧了犹太至上主义和以色列的神权法西斯主义倾向。

孔杰荣始终深切和同情受难者，却从不向黑暗屈服。他的生命是对世界的祝福，而他本人也被命运所眷顾。我永远也忘不了他的音容笑貌、他深邃的眼神，以及他宽广无垠的爱。让我觉得伤感的是，在他离开人世之际，美国与中国都走在越来越黑暗的方向。但孔杰荣教授的思想遗产和精神遗产，将继续激励那些他深深爱着的人们，激励我们延续他所珍视的事业，不屈不挠，并相信世界会变得更好。 minzhuzhongguo.org?p=110284

法广专访/滕彪：中国处在抗议多发期，走向“和谐社会”的反面 胡锦涛提出“和谐社会”的口号，也说明了这个社会是相当的不和谐。中共提出“稳定压倒一切”，首先是政权的稳定，它把政权稳定当做最大的目标。所以就看到，严密审查言论，限制民众聚集，网格化管理、高科技监控、暴力维稳。但是暴力之下的和谐，不是真正的和谐；专制之下的稳定，也不是真正的稳定。 tinyurl.com/yv5utvab

去年我对Jerome Cohen 教授的学术访谈 孔杰荣/滕彪：党国体制下的法律运作与民间抗争 chinademocrats.org?p=3116

R.i.P. Jerome Cohen (July 1, 1930 – September 22, 2025) Very saddened and shocked to hear of the passing of Jerry Cohen. He is the champion of promoting rule of law and human rights in China and other East Asian countries. His support is priceless for my career and my life.

Political violence becomes far more likely under 4 conditions: when democracy is declining rapidly, when societies are divided by race, religion or ethnicity, when political leaders tolerate or encourage violence, and when citizens have easy access to guns. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

以色列袭击加沙医院杀害20人，包括五位为路透美联等工作的记者，然后又袭击了救援人员 caus.com/all-articles... 据巴勒斯坦卫生官员称，路透社签约摄影师侯萨姆·马斯里在医院楼顶下方的一层楼内、靠近路透社的直播点处，在第一次袭击中被炸身亡。医院方面和目击者表示，以色列随后对这一地点进行了第二次袭击，造成其他记者、前来救援的工作人员以及医护人员死亡。

身陷囹圄的中国人权律师，对世人提出一个警醒：法律既可以是压迫的工具，也可以是抗争的武器。中国维权运动的遗产不是失败，而是抗争。他们证明：即使在一个专为压制反对力量而设的体制中，有良知的人依然能够奋起反抗。709十年，抗争仍在继续——争取一个国家的自由，就是争取所有人的自由。世界应当铭记那些为建设自由民主中国而付出巨大牺牲的勇敢律师，同时也应意识到：不能为了经济利益与政治考量而在人类自由尊严问题上保持沉默。 minzhuzhongguo.org?p=109800

流亡律师痛惜“709大抓捕”十周年后公民社会的丧失 tinyurl.com/yyt49zwj

许志永，从一开始就成为最活跃的人权律师和公民社会的领导者之一。2003年，他和滕彪等人创办了公盟，为司法不公的受害者提供法律援助。公盟的活动也包括挑战类似于南非种族隔离的户籍制度，推动废除劳动教养等非司法监禁手段，挑战一胎化政策，反对媒体审查和宗教迫害，为毒奶粉的受害者讨回公道。滕曾和他一起一次又一次地前往黑砖窑，帮助现代奴工维权；组织律师和公民去揭露和反抗地方官员的强制堕胎和强制结扎的暴行；前往黑监狱去解救被随意关押的上访者。 yibaochina.com?p=256140

AFP：The human rights movement has almost been "completely destroyed" in the wake of the crackdown, Teng said. Activists and lawyers still in the country, were facing a difficult time with much higher risks. #709lawyers uk.news.yahoo.com/exiled-chine...

在“709大抓捕”十周年之际，被判14年徒刑的著名人权律师许志永的第二本书《美好中国》由博登书屋正式出版。 滕彪、孔杰荣（Jerome Cohen）作序；Andrew Nathan、许章润、Rory Truex等学者郑重推荐。 www.barnesandnoble.com/w/32654-2290...

听到傅国涌先生英年早逝的消息，震惊，心痛。最后一次交往，是2024年3月17日，我与傅国涌、黎安友、吴国光、张伦、胡平、王柯、周保松、石井知章等学者在日本参观富冈制丝厂纪念馆，参观结束后，我们在回程的车上展开了热烈讨论。 没想到竟是永别。

法广：滕彪：我们纪念中国人权律师的受难，同时也纪念他们的理想、勇气，还有行动力。……维权运动从2003年到2015年，有四个趋势就是：政治化、街头化、组织化和国际化。而恰恰是中国维权律师所取得的成就、所取得的影响力，成为中共打压的一个深层的原因。 #709大抓捕 tinyurl.com/4m8va9zh

Dear god, @princetonupress.bsky.social is even proud of the visit to Xinjiang, issuing a press note that gushes about newfound appreciation for "the incredible power of Uyghur poetry," nevermind poet Tahir Hamut Izgil literally wrote a book called WAITING TO BE ARRESTED AT NIGHT.

‪George Conway 说，“我再怎么强调也不为过：在2026年之前，只有两样东西能阻挡专制计划达成目标：司法体系与人民抗议运动。我们无法掌控前者，但我们绝不能放弃或抛弃后者。”

共产党对美国的渗透，当然是个严重的问题，需要反对；但是川普团队借此机会污名化所有中国留学生乃至在美中国人，性质就完全不同了。美国政府目前对中国留学生进行更多的签证限制和背景审查，这是明显的排华和种族主义，但不少民运人士竟然为此叫好。 www.rfi.fr/cn/%E4%B8%93...

Trump exhibits 3 classic symptoms of totalitarianism: a charismatic leader surrounded by a personal cult, the identification of the state with himself and a refusal to accept the legitimacy of opposition or dissent. He has used public powers to pursue private grudges. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/02/o...

共产极权的黑暗笼罩着我们的时代，法律被用作镇压的工具，真相被系统封锁，反抗被定义为犯罪。哪怕这光亮微弱得几乎要熄灭，也足以提醒我们尚未彻底沉沦。愿我们都成为那微弱的光亮，穿透这深重的黑暗。 山左瑛子 | 在这黑暗时代，我成为了“吊照”律师 yibaochina.com?p=255907

The piling of charges on Joshua Wong only reveals how insecure the CCP regime is, how fearful it feels about the true sentiment of the people: their yearning for democracy. apnews.com/article/hong...

任何一個貧富差距嚴重的社會，必有一套意識形態，讓人既看不到當中的不平等，更不會意識到那背後一切制度的的不公與不義。支撐當前西方社會之內及南北半球之間懸殊貧富差異的，就是那一個歌頌既得利益者，把投機正當化為聰明投資，將靠爸族包裝成靠個人才智與努力獲得成功的新自由主義，亦即21世紀資本主義的化身。 bostonreviewofbooks.substack.com/p/690

Trump admitting that he has been protecting America’s enemy

An interesting fact about the vice president of the United States is that he’s deeply engaged in online neo-Nazi culture

The world that existed before 2016 is not going to come back. A US that could elect Trump is a different sort of country from the one in 1989. For the time being, the burden of leadership of the liberal democratic world will have to fall on other countries. www.persuasion.community/p/why-libera...
