Domestic Law Reforms in Post-Mao China
This volume explores various aspects of the law in transition in post-Mao China. Stanley Lubman's introduction places each of the substantive chapters in the larger context of Chinese legal studies. Edward Epstein analyses the transplanting of European and Anglo-American legal ideologies into China, and the dilemmas this poses for the rule of law and legitimation in the reform period. Murray Scot Tanner analyses reforms in the legislative process…
China in 2016
As the next Party Congress loomed in 2017, China’s top leaders in 2016 endorsed President Xi Jinping as the leadership “core,” a move that may allow his further consolidation of political power. The economy grew at a targeted 6.7%. Beijing challenged the new Taiwan administration, and sought to consolidate its muscle-flexing in the South China Sea. The likely direction of US relations under Donald Trump remained uncertain
China in 2015
Surveying China in 2015, this article focuses on how the Xi leadership dealt with several of the most complex economic and security challenges it faced during the year, in particular: sustaining economic growth; responding to social unrest; confronting environmental problems; managing foreign relations in Southeast Asia and the South China Sea; reforming and modernizing the People’s Liberation Army; and managing cross-Strait relations
Chinese Economic Coercion Against Taiwan
Since the early 1980s, the cross-strait relationship between Taiwan and mainland China has exploded, driven by economic and political reforms. As a result, each would suffer great economic pain and dislocation in the event of a major disruption in that rapidly growing economic relationship. This monograph analyzes the political impact of that relationship and evaluates the prospects for Beijing to exploit it by employing economic coercion against…
China rethinks unrest

Strike Hard! Anti-Crime Campaigns and Chinese Criminal Justice, 1979-1985 . Harold M. Tanner
Cracks in the Wall
China's coercive system still shows a capacity to suppress individuals deemed threatening to the state. Beneath the surface, this system is facing unprecedented challenges to central control, effectiveness, and discipline, all of which could produce a growing crisis of governability for Beijing
State Coercion and the Balance of Awe
Shackling the Coercive State
Chinese security officials and scholars are acknowledging the widespread use of torture by police and are attempting to do something about this problem, even when foreign critics are not watching. Their efforts, however, are fraught with dilemmas
Will the State Bring You Back In? Policing and Democratization
The Politics of Lawmaking in Post-Mao China
Breaking the Vicious Cycles
China’s National People’s Congress has been slowly, steadily evolving into an increasingly powerful legislature, creating a more open and consultative political system in China. The NPC has institutionalized this development and is not simply in another cycle of change
