In this episode, Carl Zha discusses with me his recent trip to China, and specifically to the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. We discuss what role tourism plays in the Chinese economy, and specifically in the economy of Xinjiang, how Xinjiang’s economy is increasingly being linked up with the eastern parts of China to share the fruits of development, in addition to the some of the security and separatism challenges faced by those in the region, and more.Carl Zha is the host of the Silk and Steel Podcast.Journal of International Solidarity Links
