Abstract:	Introduction: Making the censored public -- Rebuilding the republic : state propaganda in the wake of Tiananmen -- Songs from afar : contesting the official narrative from the periphery -- Transgressive cuts : making a scene in the postrevolutionary age -- The orthography of censorship -- Conclusion: the other side of censorship.
	"Conventional wisdom has it that the three taboos of China--the three Ts--are Taiwan, Tibet, and Tiananmen. During the recent 30th anniversary of the massacre, there was an outpouring of stories from Chinese students and immigrants about the shock and disbelief they felt at learning about the event, which had been so effectively erased from existence at home by Chinese censorship. And yet, Tom Chen's Made in Censorship is about, as the subtitle has it, the Tiananmen Movement in Chinese literature and film. Exploring such disparate works as official PLA propaganda films; Aesopian allegorical novels; underground videos; and art at the edge of censorship (a novel published in a literary journal but rejected for book publication, a movie officially sanctioned for filming but never released on the mainland, an internet novel), Chen argues that censorship is both prohibitive and generative. Prohibition encourages the development of alternative forms of communication, but also, the censorship regime requires new forms of collaboration. The communal mode of production under censorship involves, among others, publishers, editors, critics, the audience, and not least of all, censors themselves. And the state does not merely proscribe mention of Tiananmen but also puts forward its own narrative. The book also includes Chen's own story of being censored and reflections on what censorship around Tiananmen means for China studies"--
