chen, also a self-trained lawyer rose to prominence after he organized a class-action lawsuit, exposing abuses under china's one-child policy. the government is moving forward with the prosecution of a well-known tenants' rights lawyer. second the continued detention of mr. gao is instructive because it is part of a larger crackdown which the chinese government continues to stifle freedom of expression. as ambassador lock noted last month, repression in china has worsened since the uprisings in the middle east and north africa. in december and january, three activists all received long prison sentences of nine or ten years and authorities put a fourth activist on trial. each was charged with subversion or its incitement. this larger crackdown will only be exacerbated by the government's incredulous moves to potentially legalize disappearances like mr. gao's under chinese law. such a cynical move would render the whole idea of the rule of law meaningless. finally mr. gao's case is striking because how brazen the government has become and the government's willingness to lie about the circ
