Reddening Cheeks and Inducing Sweat
The Chinese Communist Party under Xi Jinping has spent the past 13 years creating an “intraparty regulatory system,” or what this article calls “Party law.” Scholars ascribe different meanings to this system and its implications for Chinese law and governance. This article submits the novel claim that Party law has its own internal logic characterized by six features which distinguish it sharply from “thin rule of law.” These six features, summar…
The Rise of Party Law
Over the past decade under Xi Jinping, the Chinese Communist Party has undertaken a vast, comprehensive, systematic project to build a system of “Party law.” The rise of Party law is at once rewiring the Party internally and recalibrating the Party’s relationship with its state. The result is a potent set of tools for putting into practice the notion that “the Party leads everything,” foregrounding the Party in governance processes, and making Pa…
Towards a Command Civil Society? China’s Xi-Era Rules on Social Organising
The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) rule system, the state’s legal and regulatory systems, and social norms and customs all contribute to shaping policy systems in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). So too does the interplay between them. Yet the commonplace state–society analytical lens obfuscates the distinct relationships between the Party and its state and society—a weakness notable in analysis of the institutional environment for social o…

Finding a place for the Party
This paper proposes a new agenda for research on Chinese politics that overcomes the obscuring effect of the ubiquitous ‘party-state’ construct, finds a substantive place for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and thereby reveals dynamics of the interplay between the Party, society and state that otherwise remain hidden. Since the 1980s, the state-society relationship has been the subject of extensive scholarship. Yet most such work treats the CC…
Social Management or Social Governance
Government Service Purchasing from Social Organizations in China
In this work, we draw on available data to develop a comprehensive picture of the process through which “government service purchasing” has developed in China thus far. We argue that to understand the challenges that have begun to emerge in practice, it is important to look back and understand how government service purchasing has developed to date. Our hope is that by providing an overview of this development process, we can facilitate further r…
Philanthropication thru Privatization Comes to China
Beyond Contestation
This paper draws on empirical research undertaken in mainland China spanning five years to examine the role of a quiet, incremental, and holistic approach adopted by grassroots ngo s as they attempt to carve out greater governance and service provision roles for themselves and influence the state. In light of this approach, it also questions the way we conceptualize the autonomy of ngo s and the search for contestation between ngo s and the state…
Analysis of Chinese Grassroots Aids Prevention NGOs’ Organizational Compliance and Development Strategies —Working from the Example of the Shanghai YAPSC
In present-day China, very few grassroots AIDS prevention NGOs – local social organizations that are active in the field of AIDS prevention work – have completed registration with the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Before the appearance of the Shanghai Youth AIDS Prevention Service Center (hereafter, the Shanghai YAPSC), there had been no successful examples of AIDS prevention NGOs dealing primarily with the social group of men who have sex with men …
