Yao Li, Playing by the Informal Rules
Accepting Authoritarianism
This comprehensive examination of the latest and most influential research on state-society relations in post-Mao China explains why three decades of capitalist economic growth have not led to increased public pressure for liberal democratic change
Labour protest in China’s private sector
Building on existing studies of worker activism in formerly communist states, this paper examines the context, nature and consequences of labour protest in China's private sector – highlighting the specific features that have emerged from China's unique 'communist' political regime and partially privatized economy. As private enterprises have grown in China, private sector worker protests have been common. Three key factors have shaped this activ…
What is in a Name? A Comparison of Being Branded a Religious Cult in the United States and the People's Republic of China
Religious beliefs are important in every society, and a study of them can enable scholars to better understand a society's norms and structures. Many social conflicts in the world today include a religious component and arise when religions spread to new areas through globalization. Understanding how different societies deal with religious conflict and controversial religious groups, especially in the context of global cultural flows, can provide…
The dynamics of labour protest in an era of declining social protection
This special feature brings together four papers that aim to uncover the particular contextual conditions within which the grievances of workers evolve into different forms of labour protests, each
Engaging and Evading the Party-State
Drawing on new data, this article examines the challenges and open spaces for unofficial Protestant groups in China’s Reform era. Findings show that four important factors have influenced the ability of unofficial Protestant leaders and groups to practise and grow within China’s post-Mao political environment: (i) the behaviour of Protestant groups in the face of official rules and restrictions; (ii) the geographic location of Protestant groups; …

Socialist Insecurity
Sources of social support for China’s current political order
In recent years, scholars have puzzled over the fact that China’s increased economic privatization and marketization since the early 1990s have not triggered a simultaneous advance in political liberalization. Many have sought to explain why – despite a marked upsurge in popular unrest – sources of social support for the political order have remained sizeable. Seeking to shed light on this debate, this article investigates the nature and implicat…

These works exemplify the kind of broadly comparative study that many political scientists call for, yet few actually undertake. Kurt Schock studies six differ…

The China Democracy Party and the Politics of Protest in the 1980s–1990s
Does the appearance of the China Democracy Party signal a new level and type of political activism in China? This article explores the answer, through interviews with party members, primary documents and secondary sources. It finds that despite a number of continuities with protest actions of the 1980s – including an emphasis on legal, non-violent protest methods and a tendency toward intra-movement factionalism – the CDP displays some novel char…
The Power of Tiananmen
Student Mobilization in Taiwan
Perhaps the most stunning case of a peaceful and rapid political transformation in recent years may be found in a land also known for its economic miracles-the Republic of China (ROC) on Taiwan. In roughly one decade, Taiwan moved from being a single-party state under the strictures of martial law to a multiparty democracy with direct legislative and presidential elections. Contemporaneously, such civil liberties as freedom of speech, assembly, a…
