In most non-democratic countries, today governing forty-four percent of the world population, the power of the regime rests upon a ruling party. Contrasting with conventional notions that authoritarian regime parties serve to contain elite conflict and manipulate electoral-legislative processes, this book presents the case of China and shows that rank and-file members of the Communist Party allow the state to penetrate local communities. Subnational comparative analysis demonstrates that in 'red areas' with high party saturation, the state is most effectively enforcing policy and collecting taxes. Because party membership patterns are extremely enduring, they must be explained by events prior to the Communist takeover in 1949. Frontlines during the anti-colonial Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945) continue to shape China's political map even today. Newly available evidence from the Great Leap Forward (1958–1961) and the Cultural Revolution (1966–1976) shows how a strong local party basis sustained the regime in times of existential crisis.

This is the epitome of 外宾视角

比很多历史学的专著都厚了。详细的评价过几天再写。

【翻过】“革命老区”传统对49后政治经济之影响。作者发现，抗日时期党渗透最深的几个根据地，相比其他地方，在大跃进/文革时期更能抵制过激政策，而在78后对计划生育与财税改革中却又执行最力。作者认为，差异不在党的力量，而在党的性质。这些地方党组织的力量一直很强，只不过性质上从party of revolutionaries变成了party in power，从self-corrective device变成了policy implementer。似乎是一个颇有趣的脑洞，定量方法部分不懂，不好评价其结论...
