Spatial analysis of prehospital emergency medical services accessibility
Introduction: The evaluation of the accessibility of prehospital emergency medical facilities plays a vital role in the rational allocation of urban medical resources. Proper emergency medical services (EMS) planning based on accessibility evaluations can facilitate a more equitable distribution of healthcare services, thereby reducing disparities in emergency care availability across different urban areas. Prehospital EMS is often highly urgent,…
Epidemiological characteristics and trends of pre-hospital emergency care in Handan, China from 2011 to 2024
Background Pre-hospital emergency medical service (EMS) is essential in providing acute care services. This study aimed to analyze the characteristics and trends of pre-hospital EMS in Handan, China from 2011 to 2024 and provide references for the government and medical institutions to optimize EMS. Methods Pre-hospital EMS data from 2011 to 2024 in Handan were obtained from the database of Handan Emergency Rescue Command Center. The GIS based an…
The blame-avoiding effect of sanction-based accountability and its boundary conditions
Drawing on a reputation-based approach to public accountability, we conducted a series of survey experiments (N = 1,677) to test whether account-holders can mitigate blame by punishing account-givers. Results show that punishment reduces blame toward account-holders. The blame-avoiding effect depends on (1) policy outcomes, being stronger when outcomes worsen; (2) trust in account-holders, weakening when audiences distrust them; and (3) types of …
The power of relative performance information in competing communications
How is regional cooperation possible in cross-border institutional conflicts? The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao cooperation from the perspective of the sociology of knowledge
Regional cooperation stands as a key strategy to address intense economic competition and formidable local governance challenges. Successful regional collaborations are typically founded on the basis of institutional similarity, which also serves as the starting point for a multitude of related theoretical studies. Consequently, the regional cooperation within the context of institutional conflicts has been overlooked. This paper aims to explore …
Cross-border ecological cooperation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area
Cross-border ecological cooperation is always a challenging issue. Ecological cooperation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has its own uniqueness as it is cross-border cooperation under “One Country, Two Systems”, which is different from multinational cooperation or regional collaboration within one country. This paper analyses the cooperation documents of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, official reports and academic literature, …
Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Cooperation
Cooperation in the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area under the “one country, two systems” framework is different from regional cooperation in other areas. Its unique cross-border cooperation within one country has attracted much attention from the academic community. Since the 1980s, the cooperation between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao has gone through different stages with China’s development. Examining the process of change can contr…
Court finance and floundering judicial reform in China
Decentralized court finance and personnel management practices have been criticized for breeding extra-judicial interventions and corruption in China. Determined to advance law-based governance and to constrain recalcitrant local leaders, the Chinese leadership under Xi Jinping in 2014 rolled out reforms to centralize local court finance to the provincial level with the aim to sever local courts from local influence. Despite high expectations, im…
Spatiotemporal Analysis of Gastrointestinal Tumor (GI) with Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) Based on Heterogeneous Background
The purpose of this study is to explore hotspots or clusters of gastrointestinal tumors (GI) and their spatiotemporal distribution characteristics and the changes over time in 293 villages and communities in Jianze County, central China, through the kernel density estimation (KDE) method based on the rarely considered heterogeneous background. The main findings were: (1) Heterogeneous background impact: there were substantial differences in the G…
Competing logics and reform strategies in local reform
How to balance the market and the government to promote local economic development and provide sufficient public services has always been a challenging issue for leaders, in face of the existence of varied interests and values of different stakeholders. Conflicting values between the market and the government are directly related to the competing logics between market orientation and bureaucratic/administrative dominance. Since China's transition…
Riding on the power of the masses? How different modes of mass mobilization shape local elite bargaining in China
When local bureaucrats in China disagree with their superiors, official channels for achieving a policy revision are limited and generally ineffective. However, if the stakes involved are high, they may turn to the power of the masses and draw on public pressure to enhance their negotiating position. In such informal inter-bureaucratic bargaining, local officials might intentionally facilitate popular protest and lead to a situation we call 'mobi…
Services and surveillance during the pandemic lockdown
The COVID-19 pandemic caused a lockdown of Wuhan, and strict control was imposed in many major Chinese cities, including the national capital of Beijing. Residents' committee workers at the grass-roots level have played a critical role in the enforcement of the government's pandemic prevention and control measures, through their day-to-day service and surveillance as local community managers. This article examines their work in Wuhan and Beijing …
The dynamics of the city-managing-county model in China
This paper aims to shed fresh light on rural–urban interaction and urbanization in a non-Western authoritarian context. It describes the change in post-Mao China from very vertical and separate government hierarchies for rural and urban areas, which inhibited rural–urban interactions, to a city-managing-county model, with rural counties around a city coming under the jurisdiction of the city government. Drawing on field research and statistical d…
What Causes the Local Fiscal Crisis in China
Local governments in China are seriously under-funded relative to their assigned expenditure responsibilities for public services, resulting in the infamous ‘revenue–expenditure gap’. The dominant explanation of local fiscal difficulties given in the literature refers to central government behaviour, namely the excessive centralization of tax revenue, but it does not tally with the large flows of central subsidies to local coffers in more recent …
Fragmented authoritarianism’ – the facilitator behind the Chinese reform miracle
Although it maintains an authoritarian power structure, China has been widely perceived as one of most decentralized nations in the world in terms of government spending. The concept of ‘fragmented authoritarianism’ has figured largely in academic discussions of China's regime. It raises the question of how such apparently opposed states – ‘fragmentation’ and ‘authoritarianism’ – co-exist. In particular, how can so many important economic and pol…
