Holding China together : diversity and national integration in the post-Deng era

Despite predictions of collapse, China has sustained unity and gained international stature since the Tiananmen crisis of 1989. This volume addresses the 'fragmentation/disintegration thesis' and examines the sources and dynamics of China's resilience. Through theoretically informed empirical studies, the authors consider key institutions for political integration and economic governance.

  • "Despite many predictions of collapse and disintegration, China has managed to sustain unity and gain international stature since the Tiananmen crisis of 1989. This volume addresses the 'fragmentation/disintegration thesis' and examines the sources and dynamics of China's resilience. Through theoretically informed empirical studies, the volume's authors look at several key institutions for political integration and economic governance. They also dissect how difficult policies to regulate economic and social life (employment and migration, population planning, industriual adjustment, and regional disparities) are designed and implemented. The authors show that China's leaders have retained authoritarian political institutions, but have also reinforced and modified them and constructed new ones in the light of changing circumstances. In policy implementation, China's leaders have learnt by doing and made significant adaptations to improve the effectiveness of socio-economic policies. Institutional and policy adaptations together have helped shore up political authority and create an environment for rapid growth, while accomodating growing diversity."
