"End of an Era" is one episode in "Assignment China", a multi-part documentary film series on the history of American correspondents in China being produced by USC's U.S.-China Institute. The lead reporter is Mike Chinoy, a Senior Fellow at the Institute and former CNN Beijing bureau chief and Senior Asia Correspondent. The film features interviews with journalists who covered China during those years, including such well-known correspondents as Robert Elegant, Joseph Lelyveld, Orville Schell, Fox Butterfield, Steve Bell, Henry Bradsher, Ted Koppel, Bruce Dunning, and Tom Brokaw. It also includes interviews with diplomats who handled Chinese affairs, and contains rare archival footage of Hong Kong and China from that time.
11/14/2013 - Protecting the Vulnerable:a Discussion of Legal Reform and Civil Society in China
Leavey Library, Leavey Auditorium
University of Southern California
Los Angeles, CA 90089
Time:4:00 - 5:30PM
Free, please email uschina@usc.edu to RSVP. Please join us for a discussion with Ms. Guo Jianmei to learn more about China's rapidly growing civil society sector and the differences it can make in the lives of women, youth and others around the country.
Ms. Guo, one of China's preeminent public interest lawyers, has fought for women's rights in China for more than 17 years; handling legal aid and public interest litigation cases on behalf of women, researching rights protection, and preparing draft laws to protect and promote women's rights in China.
Drawing on her many years of experience as both a public interest lawyer and pioneer of Chinese non-governmental organizations(NGOs), Ms. Guo will outline recent political developments within China, including recent legal reform efforts such as reforms to China's public interest law and will also discuss the critical role NGOs are playing to help promote and protect the rights of marginalized and vulnerable groups. Ms. Guo will provide insights to the NGO climate in China pulled from her direct experience in building organizations from the ground up, and examine both the existing legal structure and potential developments that could benefit civil society and China as a whole.
