Popular Criticism Cracks China’s Wall of Denial About Pollution
Involved symbolic politics, that
is, the use of symbols and narratives to frame an event and influence the
public. Many narratives stress the innocence of the victims and the injustices
they suffered. Which is the definition I got from the Yang website. I think the
symbolic politics the government is using in the article is that the
environment is being destroyed. The leverage is on how bad the pollution is
getting and how it’s spreading and the health standards. The accountability
politics is giving netizens more rights and freedom of speech so they can talk
out about this topic and get more attention on it.
