Despite the dominant narrative of the repression of civil society in China, Civil Society Under Authoritarianism: The China Model argues that interactions between local officials and civil society facilitate a learning process, whereby each actor learns about the intentions and work processes of the other. Over the past two decades, often facilitated by foreign donors and problems within the general social framework, these interactions generated a process in which officials learned the benefits and disadvantages of civil society. Civil society supports local officials' efforts to provide social services and improve public policies, yet it also engages in protest and other activities that challenge social stability and development. This duality motivates local officials in China to construct a "social management" system - known as consultative authoritarianism - to encourage the beneficial aspects and discourage the dangerous ones. Although civil society has not democratized China, such organizations have facilitated greater dialogue between citizens and state as part of politics in an authoritarian system that normally lacks such channels for participation.
consultative authoritarianism and illiberal wave,参考文献部分很多错误,差评!
评分感觉是目前最符合我观察到的现象的一本书。不过,其实也是在延伸Spires的说法。研究的组织多走的是高端大气政府合作路线,而非草根组织。把中国经验融入公民社会的整体理论的努力还是很有趣的(虽然最后一章我没怎么看)。
评分开篇解释协商式威权主义概念时废话过多,中段对北京、云南&江苏、四川研究细节糟糕有用信息过少,而结尾时联系俄国的Sovereign Democracy又太过匆忙。但不可否认,这个非dichotomous对公民社会的理解增添了很多的空间,尤其是那个learning policy process可以多加讨论,信息传播和关系网是发展中最好的对策方法,公民社会对民主化的推动确实不是单方向的而可能imrpove governance。本书最大的帮助就是提供了很多的名词、NGO列表、和学术参考文献,也为我进一步理解公民社会奠定了理论基础,书中涉及的NGO组织和行动具有借鉴价值。需要选定NGOs学习、阅读1980s的Decentralization过程、适当了解新左派的思潮以及重要公共管理政策 Chris
评分西溪西文书库;太繁琐了8
评分1、把公民社会化约成NGO十分不可取。和社运失去联系的NGO很容易萎缩。虽然看起来很蓬勃,有时候还能递上去一点政策建议;2、夸大了CA模型的稳定性。政府管理的手段不在于设置了正反两方面的激励,而在于这些激励的标准从来都不公开透明。今天还在合法的地带,明天就整你。3、主要问题在于靶子不行。自由主义的公民社会理论本来就更偏意识形态一点,并无可观的经验研究支持。对法团主义的批判稍有价值。
