  • The Integration of Emerging Powers into Club Institutions

    Open AccessMatthew D Stephens, K StephensARTICLEGlobal Policy2020

    How do emerging powers gain inclusion into club institutions, i.e. institutions with selective memberships that deliberately seek to avoid universality? We present a framework that highlights three factors: an emerging power’s ‘fit’ to the club’s logic of exclusivity, the club’s possession of goods of value to the emerging power, and the ability of the emerging power to incentivize the club to open up via different strategies. We hypothesize that…

    Albert Buixadé Farré, Scott R Stephenson et al.ARTICLEPolar Geography2014

    The Russian and Norwegian Arctic are gaining notoriety as an alternative maritime route connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and as sources of natural resources.

    This article examines one aspect of China's “second revolution” led by Deng Xiaoping: the relationship between the post‐Mao leadership and the intellectuals, who were the most persecuted during the “Cultural Revolution.” When Deng took power in 1978, one tough challenge was to mobilize China's well‐educated men and women for the nation's modernization. New policies toward them were introduced to rekindle their enthusiasm in creative and critical …

  • Reform Corruption

    Stephen K Ma, K StephensARTICLEPacific Affairs1989Cited by: 3

    CONCOMITANT WITH CHINA'S RAPID AND RADICAL REFORM there has been rampant corruption among its bureaucrats. Chinese authorities have exhorted cadres to get rich last in the wake of the coming Communist prosperity. Deng Xiaoping favours a pattern in which people will become prosperous first, and others later.' But many government officials, wanted to be first and last on the road towards common prosperity, have turned a deaf ear to the Party's advi…
