Forging a Labor Market in Urban China
D uring the last two decades of the twentieth century, China underwent a dramatic transition from a planned to a market economy, and the influence of market forces on the allocation of resources in many economic realms substantially increased.

That change, however, proceeded at a much slower pace than did other aspects of…
Dismantling the Chinese mini-welfare state? Marketization and the politics of institutional transformation, 1979–1999
This article presents a systematic examination of the workplace-based welfare system in urban China. During the pre-reform period from 1949 to 1978, most welfare provisions in China were delivered and the majority of welfare spending was spent by workplace units. Since China's market transition started in the late 1970s, this workplace-based welfare system is no longer financially sustainable, and more importantly its functioning constitutes an i…

Cultural Intellectuals and the Politics of the Cultural Public Space in Communist China (1979-1989)
In China, the period from 1979 to 1989 was one of thawing and awakening. Moving away from the rigors of the "political winters" in Mao's time, Chinese society revived its diversity and vigor that had been harshly depressed for a long time by a revolutionary-totalitarian regime (Tsou 1986). One of the tremendous changes occurred in the cultural realm. In the mid and late 1980s thousands of Chinese cultural intellectuals, from well-known professors…

Massive lay-offs are rooted in the 'fullemployment' policy carried out in the state sector under the centrally planned economy However, the total number of laid-off workers accumulated to a dangerous level in 1998 because the chinese social wlfare system, which depended upon work units for delivering benefits and was limited to th…
Non-Establishment' Intellectuals, Public Space, and the Creation of Non-Governmental Organizations in China
Elitist democracy and China's democratization
This article examines how a group of Chinese intellectuals experimented with the western concept of elitist democracy in a Chinese context in the late 1980s. Drawing insights from western theories on political development and political culture, they argued that China's lack of a civic culture meant an elitist democracy would be an historically necessary and inevitable stage during the process of democratization. To implement elitist democracy in …
