	Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Unlike the Tiananmen protests of 1987, which consisted mainly of students and intellectuals, the protests in 1989 commanded widespread support from the urban workers who were alarmed by growing inflation and corruption.
		Generally, the demonstration at Tiananmen Square was well-ordered, with daily marches of students from various Beijing area colleges displaying their solidarity with the boycott of college classes and with the developing demands of the protest.
		The Tiananmen protests were frequently invoked to argue against trade liberalization with mainland China and by the blue team as evidence that the PRC government was an aggressive threat to world peace and United States interests.

		Members of the government eventually prepared a white paper on the incident, which was eventually published in the West in January 2001 as the Tiananmen Papers, which gives the government's viewpoint on the protests and was provided by an anonymous source purportedly within the Chinese government.
		The Tiananmen protests were frequently invoked to argue against trade liberalization with China and by the blue team as evidence that the Chinese government was an aggressive threat to world peace and United States interests.

		Incident of 1947 was commemorated under the auspices of the administration of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP).
		In the period from the second half of the 1980s through the mid-1990s, the native Taiwanese democratic opposition was able to bring the issue to the forefront through demonstrations and annual commemorations, finally prompting President Lee Teng-hui's government to acknowledge that the massacre had occurred and initiating compensation for the families of the victims.
		In Taiwan, the massacre after the incident forced Taiwanese to realize that they were quite distinct from the "mainland" Chinese in their value systems and their political culture.

		During the session, some Falun Gong practitioners asked her about the various suspected points and flaws of the shots of the 'self-immolation' (especially about the scene where Wang Jindong was severely burnt and his skin turned fl, yet the plastic drink bottle between his legs was undamaged).
		According to this report, the so called self-immolators went to Tiananmen in the morning but could not enter into the square, so "they could only sneak and wander near the square", and were only able to enter the square "in the afternoon when the square reopened" that they began setting fire on themselves.

		A decade and a half after the Tiananmen Incident, the paradox of Tiananmen’s seemingly long shadow and apparent irrelevance characterizes China in almost every major area of politics and policy.
		The Tiananmen protests seemed to show that rising wealth was not enough to forestall demands for democratic-or at least liberalizing-political reform and, indeed, that such growth may help to generate such pressures for political change.
