Introduction
In the discussion have used the aspect of social unrest in China. Basically, China is among
the largest countries with a large population (Chen, 2012). In order to control millions of
people, adequate policies need to be formulated so as to curb the issue of social unrest.
Therefore, in a real sense social unrest is commonly defined as the violent form which
causes dissatisfaction and sometimes includes behaviours which tend to disrupt the normal
functioning within the organization. China has been associated with a number of social
unrest activities. The write up will analyse the causes of social unrest and then indicate the
corrective actions of social unrest in China (Elfstrom & Kuruvilla, 2014).
On arguing on the expression of social unrest one realizes that issue of social unrest is
characterized by rioting. The aspect of rioting comprises the unwanted behaviors which
are exhibited by uncontrollable groups within an organization or within a nation. Through
the rioting, there are issues of looting, Aspect of assault and arson and also sometimes
murder which leads to loss of lives of innocent creatures (Jisi, 2011). Different authors
when explaining the point of social unrest in China they emphasize more on mental
rioting. The issue of mental rioting in China shows the widespread violence and
disturbances which is induced by different people within the nation. People tend to feel
anonymous when carrying out social unrest thus inducing violence freely.
Social unrest in China has been facilitated by the growing disparities of income and
official corruption. Most of the time the issue of corruption in the country tends to divide
individuals meaning there is dissatisfaction of the citizens in the state. When corruption
surrounds the political arena then the whole country is paralyzed and may participate in
social unrest activities when fighting for the rights (Klein, 2012). In China corruption was
highly practiced by those in power thus causing society dissatisfaction. Most of the time

economic analysts don't expect the issue of social unrest to raise especially when all
citizens are dissatisfied with the policies passed by the government.
Also, the other aspect which analyses social unrest in China is the lack of democratic
institutions. When the society lacks adequate resources fighting for social unrest then the
aspect of riot starts thus causing negative impacts to the society. In China, there is the
number of protests which tend to deter economic growth. Since no one is willing to
conform to the opposite transition then protest embarks in order to fight for the rights
(Klein, 2012).
In addition, there is a lack of an appropriate channel to solve grievances.There were those
workers who were ruthlessly fired from different enterprises.The people lacked an
individual to fight for their rights since they were not given notice on the key reason why
they had to quit the job. When rights and freedoms of individuals are not keenly adhered
to the aspect of social unrest arises (Klein, 2012). China has been characterized by a
number of political instability practices. There are no legal and political centers to fight
social unrest in China. Human rights and freedoms are being violated from a day to
another. When a society apt methods to appreciate the importance of human rights then
issue social unrest raises up thus causing peace instability.
The other point which shows social unrest is the policy option for the Congress in China.
The motive for the Congress is to increase awareness on rights and local democracy in the
entire state. The body has failed to induce these principles to the fields of civil society and
environmental programs in China (Lee, 2016). Through this many people are dissatisfied
and that's why they are to fight for what is right to them. Therefore, the public protest
enough so as to remind the policy organization on the key terms needed for their freedoms
and rights.
