  • Post-productivism and rural revitalization in China: Drivers and outcomes

    Open AccessMeiling Wu, Q F Zhang et al.ARTICLEJournal of Rural Studies2024Cited by: 9References: 27

    We propose that post-productivism offers a useful analytical framework for understanding the multi-scalar and diverse changes that are taking place in China's rural revitalization. As a theoretical framework that emerged from the study of rural changes in the Global North, the applicability of post-productivism in the Global South has been contested. This paper offers the first comprehensive analysis of the emergence of post-productivism in rural…

  • Why do farmers' cooperatives fail in a market economy? Rediscovering Chayanov with the Chinese experience

    Zhanping Hu, Q F Zhang et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Peasant Studies2022Cited by: 10References: 13

    In The Theory of Peasant Cooperatives, Chayanov develops the theories of differential optima and vertical integration, which stress the vulnerability of peasant farming in capitalist markets, and argues that cooperatives can support smallholders only if they operate as ‘a cooperative movement’, are buttressed by a strong ‘cooperative culture’, and achieve ‘vertical integration’. Based on extensive fieldwork in China, we identify six major obstacl…

  • Vertical versus horizontal: What is really at issue in the exclusion problem

    Open AccessJohn A Donaldson, John DonaldsonARTICLESynthese2021References: 45

    I outline two ways of reading what is at issue in the exclusion problem faced by non-reductive physicalism, the “vertical” versus “horizontal”, and argue that the vertical reading is to be preferred to the horizontal. I discuss the implications: that those who have pursued solutions to the horizontal reading of the problem have taken a wrong turn

  • The Business Politicians: Reflections from a Study of Political Corruption

    Donatella Della Porta, Alessandro Pizzorno et al.ARTICLEJournal of Law and Society1996Cited by: 11References: 2

    Political corruption has not disappeared with modernization, as some scholars believed would happen. On the contrary, corruption in Western democracies is often described as 'systemic', 'institutionalized' or 'diffuse'. At the same time, the political class is said to have undergone considerable change: catch-all parties and 'media power' have changed the structure of political careers and created new types of professional politician. Little thou…

    T HE foreign trade of United States during last two decades, and particularly since 1931, has been carried on in midst of unprecedented alterations in international monetary situation and even in concepts concerning it.

According to classical theory, gold was the balancing agent in maintaining international economic equilibrium, and this …
