散步 (sànbù): take a walk
Along with “sightseeing,” “taking a walk” is a new form of resistance against the government. In China, striking is difficult, applications for protests are routinely denied, and petitioning the government often brings dire consequences. Workers and citizens have adopted new methods that tread the fine line of legality. In February 2011, dissidents attempted to stage a “jasmine revolution” by organizing groups to walk in a central Beijing shopping district.
Yu Jianrong, a researcher at China’s Academy of Social Science, gives a vivid description of this method:
