“The role of the Trade Unions and of the European society in the building of a free Trade Union and a democratic society in China and Tibet”
After the tragic events of the last spring, the situation in Tibet is so worsened that, from various angles, it recalls the darkest moments of the Cultural Revolution.
The only way the regime could object to the protests was the repression of every form of dissent.
Besides, the economic crisis that last year made thousands of enterprises shut down , today runs over the economy of some Chinese regions and causes mass dismissal of migrant workers.
Therefore People's Republic of China is going through a period of great instability, heralding very important changes.
So we need to better know the real economic and social conditions of the country and to settle the role that the Trade Unions and the European society could play in the building of a free Trade Union and a democratic society in China and Tibet.
