Review of “China’s Social Credit Lab” (2019)

Moving picture, 46 minutes

Seen in 2019.

Seen in its Swedish-language adaptation on SVT.

The early stages of the PRC’s social credit system.

Part of an episodic Singaporean Channel News Asia series called Get Real. Editorial choices seem to suggest that while the system was being implemented with little serious thought and some good intentions, it was also being trimmed to amplify existing power structures.
