  • Toward a Political Economy of the Commons: Simple Rules for Sustainability

    Meina Cai, Ilia Murtazashvili et al.•BOOK•Toward a Political Economy of the…•2022

    Since Garrett Hardin published The Tragedy of the Commons in 1968, critics have argued that population growth and capitalism contribute to overuse of natural resources and degradation of the global environment. They propose coercive, state-centric solutions. This book offers an alternative view. Employing insights from new institutional economics, the authors argue that property rights, competitive markets, polycentric political institutions, and…

  • Government debt, land financing and distributive justice in China

    Open Access•Meina Cai, Jianyong Fan et al.•ARTICLE•Urban Studies•2021•Cited by: 12•References: 46

    Massive funds that are necessary to finance China’s capital-intensive urbanisation are channelled through Local Government Financing Vehicles (LGFVs), which are established by local governments to circumvent the prohibition on borrowing. This study examines LGFV development and how this land financing development strategy influences villagers. We argue that China’s discriminatory land property system and the feature of land being a captive asset …

  • Land commodification andhukoupolicy innovation in China: Evidence From a Survey Experiment

    Meina Cai, Pengfei Liu et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Chinese Governance•2020•Cited by: 4•References: 6

    This article examines how land commodification has changed the dynamics of hukou policy innovations in China. The increasing demand of local governments for land to fuel industrialization and urbanization creates appreciating land values, which in turn lead villagers to update their belief about the value associated with their rural hukou. This is perhaps especially the case in economically more developed areas where rural benefits, many of which…

  • Sugarcoating the bitter pill: Compensation, land governance, and opposition to land expropriation in China

    Meina Cai, Jennifer Brick Murtazashivili et al.•ARTICLE•The Journal of Peasant Studies•2020•Cited by: 16•References: 62

    China's rapid urbanization has been fueled by dispossession and subsequent commodification of villagers' land. We use interviews and an original survey of land-losing villagers to examine factors that influence their opposition to land expropriation. We find that villagers are less opposed to land expropriation when local authorities reduce the gap between land-taking compensation paid to them and the land's market value, distribute compensation …
