Enhancing Communication Quality between Government and Citizens: The Role of AI Modification
This study integrates critical AI scholarship with relational communication theories to explain how AI language modifications shape the quality of government–citizen communication. Distinguishing between informational-cognitive quality (clarity, ease of response) and expressive-constitutive quality (politeness, respectfulness, feeling heard, trust, urgency, empathy), we hypothesize that AI yields uncontested benefits for the former but contested …
Making governance agile: Exploring the role of artificial intelligence in China’s local governance
As the key to digital transformation, artificial intelligence is believed to help achieve the goal of government as a platform and the agile development of digital services. Yet we know little about its potential role in local governance, especially the advances that AI-supported services for the public sector in local governance have ventured and the public value they have created. Combining the digital transformation concepts and public value t…
Flexible Organizational Weapon of the Party: The New Presence of Women’s Federations in Women’s NGOs in China
In the past decade, the Party-state has shifted from pragmatic strategies to Party integration approaches when dealing with the third sector. It has reintroduced its organizational mechanism—mass organizations—to manage this sector and enhance direct linkages with its social constituents. This article investigates how mass organizations strategically connect with and govern civil society through a series of Party integration approaches. Drawing o…
Variability in the impacts of partisan conflict: A new perspective from bank credit
The purpose of this article is to analyse the impact of partisan conflict on bank credit, and take the global financial crisis as the time node to analyse the variability of this impact before and after the financial crisis. This article examines the impacts of partisan conflict on the bank credit by employing the US data covering the past 40 years and captures the variability in the effects of partisan conflict based on the rolling sample and ti…
Government responsiveness and citizen satisfaction: Evidence from environmental governance
Prior research has overlooked the dynamics between government responsiveness and citizen satisfaction. This article addresses this gap by examining (1) how styles of government responses affect citizen satisfaction differently and (2) how external events moderate the effects of government responsiveness on citizens. Drawing upon 79,360 environmental demands sent to local leaders in China and 100,905 Chinese citizens' environmental assessments col…
Research on the correlation of immunity in patients with chronic insomnia
Patients with chronic insomnia have immunological abnormalities, characterized by a higher incidence of clinical infection
Strategic responses of NGOs to the new party-building campaign in China
Over the last decade, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has sought to assimilate the third sector – non-governmental organizations (NGOs) – through its party-building campaign. This article examines NGOs’ strategies in response to this campaign, based on in-depth interviews with 64 NGOs and local cadres. We find that NGOs have developed three main strategies to respond to the CCP’s attempts to penetrate their organizations. First, NGOs embedded i…
From women for women: The role of social media in online nonprofit activities during Wuhan lockdown
The article examines the role of social media in mitigating information asymmetry and coordination problems during COVID‐19 epidemic crisis. We use “Sisters‐Fight‐Epidemic” online volunteering project during the outbreak of COVID‐19 in Wuhan, China, as a case to demonstrate how social media plays a role as a mechanism in linking multiple stakeholders and shaping their actions during the epidemic response. We show that social media facilitates the…
Online or Offline? Nonprofits’ Choice and Use of Social Media in Hong Kong
Nonprofits are strategically using social media to disseminate information, engage with community, and mobilize activities. The use of social media has attracted increasing academic discussion in the recent years. By challenging the proposition that online presence is always beneficial to nonprofits, we argue that seeking an online presence is itself a strategic choice; social environment as well as resource dependence would fairly affect nonprof…
Exploring Factors that Influence Voluntary Disclosure by Chinese Foundations
In the context of government regulation and social demand, Chinese foundations have increasingly faced pressure to make their organizations more transparent. Our paper explores the factors associated with voluntary disclosure by foundations in China. Building on the literature on transparency and foundation development in China, we explore how the public (donations) and the government (funding and control) might influence the voluntary transparen…
