In recent weeks, Hong Kong, the former British colony appears on the front pages of newspapers from all around the world. Many fear that the 'Umbrella Revolution' might have a similar end as protests on Tienanmen Square had in 1989. In this next PEACH event two China-researchers, Gergely Salát and Tamás Matura will explore the historical roots and the likely consequences of the current situation.

The lecture will be followed by questions and discussion.

Date: Thursday, 16th October, 2014 6.00 pm

Venue: Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Sophianum 2nd floor, Room 'John Lukács'
