2021 was a turbulent and yet productive year. I am happy that I could publish numerous op-eds, a policy primer and two academic articles. I hope that you found some of the texts thought provoking. A short thread 🧵 with links to my publications of 2021. 1/13 Image

My article "The Chinese Communist Party’s hybrid interference and Germany's increasingly contentious China debate (2018-21)" has been published open access in the Journal of the European Association for Chinese Studies @JournalEACS. 🇩🇪🇨🇳 1/32 doi.org/10.25365/jeacs… ImageImage
The Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) ambition to neutralise independent academia at home and abroad is the conundrum at the heart of this article. Strictly enforced political censorship has led to "educated acquiescence" (Elizabeth J. Perry, 2020) among scholars in China. 2/32
Based on a review of the literature on sharp power, hybrid interference, the United Front system, and the party-state's globalising censorship regime I argue that the Chinese Communist Party's rule by fear has induced self-censorship among many western academics, too. 3/32

In light of the hard authoritarian turn under General Secretary Xi Jinping the terms #DemocraticDeterrence #DemocraticSecurity #DemocraticResilience need to enter the public lexicon. If you are interested in learning more I suggest the following key readings. A short thread 🧵/1 Image
In terms of #DemocraticDeterrence Mikael Wigell's @MWigell article "Democratic Deterrence: How to Dissuade Hybrid Interference" is essential reading. His distinction between traditional deterrence and democratic deterrence is particularly illuminating /2 tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
When it comes to #DemocraticSecurity Didi Kirsten Tatlow @dktatlow has offered ten practical steps to protect European democracy and sovereignty from influence and interference by the Chinese Communist Party. This text should be widely read /3 dgap.org/en/research/pu…

In my letter to @thetimes I call on British universities to adopt the Draft Model Code of Conduct (DMCC) developed by @AFI_WG. This would show that 🇬🇧 Higher Education institutions are serious about enhancing transparency and accountability in their cooperation with 🇨🇳 China /1
The biggest danger facing British higher education institutions now is complacency. When it comes to critically re-evaluating universities’ ties with 🇨🇳 China, students, academics, service professionals and vice-chancellors all have skin in the game. The time to act is now /2
British universities agreeing to adopt @AFI_WG’s Draft Model Code of Conduct (DMCC) would be a game changer. Taking such a step would stand universities in good stead with the government, and adopting the code could help to prevent heavy-handed state regulation in the future /3

German China scholars have to find an answer to China's increasing censorship on German academia, @DavidJRMissal and I write in @ForeignPolicy. If scholars don't act, the state has to step in and help protect academic freedom /1 foreignpolicy.com/2021/10/28/ger…
The most recent example of Chinese censorship is a cancelled book tour at Confucius Institutes affiliated with German universities. Last week, at the behest of a Chinese general consul, 2 journalists were disinvited from giving talks at CIs about their biography of Xi Jinping /2
Similar attacks on academia are becoming increasingly frequent. In response to western sanctions, the CCP retaliated by imposing counter-sanctions against, inter alia, western scholars and think tanks /3

Our article "Mitigating threats to academic freedom in Germany: the role of the state, universities, learned societies and China" has just been published open access in the International Journal of Human Rights @InRights /1
tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
What follows is a brief summary. In our article we probe whether or not the ecosystem of organised academia in Germany defends academic freedom sufficiently, particularly in respect to attacks on it by the Chinese government /2
Despite constitutional guarantees of academic freedom, academics face multiple threats from populist politicians, dubious third-party funding, uncivil society, and misguided developments within German academia itself /3

Over the past twelve months @DavidJRMissal and I have jointly explored the issue of academic freedom and China. During our studies of the national context of Germany we noticed shortcomings both in terms of the academic and the public expert discourse about China /1
Our article "Mitigating threats to academic freedom in Germany: the role of the state, universities, learned societies and China" will soon be published in @InRights. In parallel we have developed ten suggestions aimed at improving the academic and public discourse about China /2
#1 Address the challenge of censorship and self-censorship.

China specialists should openly discuss the dangers of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) globalising political censorship regime and critically assess the challenge of individual and institutional self-censorship /3
