Tufts Sino-U.S. Relations Group Engagement (SURGE) is an IGL-affiliated undergraduate group that promotes and expands the academic understanding of China and East Asia on everything from economy, military, geopolitics to culture.

This Thursday, October 1st, 8 to 9 pm EST, we will welcome Professor Michael Davis who will talk about Hong Kong's new National Security Law, its implications, and the territory's political future. Professor Davis is the Professor of Law and International Affairs at India's Jindal Global University, a Senior Research Scholar at the Weatherhead East Asia Institute at Columbia University, and a Global Fellow at the Wilson Center in Washington, DC. He was previously a law professor at the University of Hong Kong until he stepped down in 2016. His articles have appeared in leading journals in law and political science. As a public intellectual and human rights advocate in Hong Kong, he was a founder of both the Article 23 Concern Group and the Article 45 Concern Group which led massive protests for human rights in 2003 and 2004.
