Abstract

The article discusses the case of Tang Yongming who murdered U.S. citizen Todd Bachman at Beijing's Drum Tower during the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. China's economic pressures, and how they produce anxiety within the country's population, are said to be relevant to the case. The author details Tang's failures and the resultant depression that drove him to commit the murder and subsequent suicide.
