Your Shortcut to... China's cultural crackdown

The disappearance of Chinese tennis star Peng Shuai has us left
with a lot of questions… After all, she's not the first
high-profile person to have seemingly vanished after criticising
the Chinese government. So in this Squiz Shortcut, we look at
what's been called China's cultural crackdown. We’ll cover the rise
of Chinese President Xi Jinping and his authority over the Chinese
Communist Party and the country, the CCP’s history of cultural
crackdowns and what’s happening now, and a few high-profile
disappearances, including, of course, Peng Shuai. Squiz Shortcuts
is your backstory to the big news stories. Squiz recommends:
