Talk:Democracy movements of China

message: There seems to be a high concentration of weasel words in this one paragraph alone.
* Many pro-democracy supporters noted that China has successfully overcome much of the challenges to democracy in China faced during the transition from a communist to a capitalist economy so there is no longer a need for prolonged political repression. They claim that pro-democracy forces would not necessarily stall economic growth after the transition, as the Communist Party states, and more importantly that the presence of democracy would help to check wasteful corruption and might achieve a more even distribution of wealth.[citation needed] Many believe that the Communist Party of China has no intention whatsoever of ever relinquishing power even if all their economic goals are ever achieved; it is said that China would have refused the WTO if the terms of entry were linked to a shift to a Western-style democracy.
It would be great if we could find an expert or work that expresses such views and give that as a citation.--69.230.164.147 (talk) 01:08, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

This should definitely include all the other democratic movements in China BEFORE the CPC came to power. That includes ROC, May Fourth, and Jiangxi Soviet, etc. -Hmib 02:14, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: Democracy in China concerns earlier movements, the Revolution of 1911, and the establishment and rule of the Communist Party of China, which can be said to be democratic movements, but do not, or did not, provide for universal suffrage and guaranteed legal rights.

message: A source was previously cited for the idea that 1952 was the genesis of Chinese democracy movements. It was not verifiable in English. 
The academic consensus is that Chinese Democracy Movements began with the Democracy Wall movement. Although its exact dating is arguable, it is generally viewed as November 1978 to spring 1981. 
Although we want to be mindful of WP:undue we could cite an argument that 1952 is the beginning of Chinese democracy movements, but we ought to have a quotation from a source that is verifiable. JArthur1984 (talk) 21:42, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
