Reviews

“Legitimacy of China’s Counter-Terrorism Approach remains a noteworthy contribution to the field. It is concisely written and contains both insight and provocative arguments relevant to not only specialists in Xinjiang and Uyghur studies but also those with an interest in Chinese security policy and terrorism and counter-terrorism studies.” (Michael Clarke, The China Quarterly, July 31, 2023)
