Jessica C. Teets is an Assistant Professor in the Political Science Department and Jeanne Epp Barksdale '48 Junior Faculty Fellow at Middlebury College, Vermont. Her research focuses on governance in authoritarian regimes - specifically the role of civil society such as non-profits, NGOs, and associations - with an emphasis on Chinese politics. She is the author, most recently, of 'Let Many Civil Societies Bloom: The Rise of Consultative Authoritarianism in China' (The China Quarterly, 2013) and 'Reforming Service Delivery in China: The Emergence of a Social Innovation Model' (Journal of Chinese Political Science, 2012). Dr Teets was recently selected to participate in the Public Intellectuals Program created by the National Committee on United States-China Relations.
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.

3.5 operational autonomy, a continuum rather than dichotomy. yet, demand-supply logic rather than institutionalization, not stable. definition of civil society. did not consider the structural factor, when political space becomes narrower, hidden transcripts? missing theoretical framework that can travel across time and leadership.
評分1、把公民社會化約成NGO十分不可取。和社運失去聯係的NGO很容易萎縮。雖然看起來很蓬勃,有時候還能遞上去一點政策建議;2、誇大瞭CA模型的穩定性。政府管理的手段不在於設置瞭正反兩方麵的激勵,而在於這些激勵的標準從來都不公開透明。今天還在閤法的地帶,明天就整你。3、主要問題在於靶子不行。自由主義的公民社會理論本來就更偏意識形態一點,並無可觀的經驗研究支持。對法團主義的批判稍有價值。
