This groundbreaking book explores the key dimensions of governance in China. These include the prospects for political reform; the processes of institution-building, such as strengthening state capacity and improving the legislative framework; enhancing regime legitimacy through local elections; and managing social discontent. Drawing on original fieldwork, the international group of authors provides a systematic analysis of the complex causes underlying China's governance problems and reflects on the prospects for future social and political change.

Pressestimmen
An excellent set of essays that provides original research findings relating to the issue of governance in contemporary China. -- Anthony Saich, Harvard University It is a welcome contribution to the limited literature on an important, if neglected, aspect of China's modernization. International Affairs Meticulously researched and minutely detailed volume. Highly recommended. CHOICE The book's insights owe much to the conceptual clarity given to it by its editor, as well as to concise chapters nonetheless rich in new empirical findings...The book is a must read for broader groups of readers: journalists and students desiring to learn more about contemporary trends in Chinese politics and society; decision-makers and professionals dealing with China on a regular basis; and citizens around the world interesting in knowing how democritization can proceed at the margins of authoritarianism. China Information The book is a welcome contribution to the existing literature on contemporary China. It will be a useful textbook for teachers examining Chinese society and politics, and the readable style and informative content of most of the essays will also attract a readership among public administrators, NGOs and policy makers.
