"We are writing to express solidarity with all our persecuted colleagues... and calling on the Chinese government to revoke these unjustified sanctions and to accept that scholarship on China, like scholarship on any country, entails scrutiny of its policies, goals and actions.
We also pledge to continue to be inclusive in our own work and engage with all academic views, including those the Chinese government is trying to marginalise. We request our universities and research institutions to demonstrate their unconditional commitment to academic freedom,
and we signal that the intimidation strategy being pursued here is unlikely to succeed. It is only by fostering critical and differentiated academic debate that scholarship can contribute to the global common good." /ends
