  • State and Capitalist Class in China's Economic Transition: From
    POLITICALECONOMY RESEARCHINSTITUTE State and Capitalist Class in China’s Economic Transition: From Great Compromise to Strained Alliance Isabela Nogueira and Hao Qi September 2018 WORKINGPAPER SERIES Number 467 State and Capitalist Class in China’s Economic Transition: From Great Compromise to Strained Alliance Isabela Nogueira∗ Federal University of Rio de Janeiro Hao Qiy Renmin University of China Abstract This article contributes to the debate on the role of the Chinese state in economic transition by shedding light on the relationship between the state and the emerging domestic capitalist class. In contrast to the literature that regards the state as a supra-class developmental state, we argue that the relation between the state and a new capitalist class is the product of a two- way movement of top-down forces and bottom-up forces over the course of a transition from a stage of what we call ‘Great Compromise’ to a stage of what we call ‘Strained Alliance’. The state-class relation has evolved with the dynamics of class conflicts, external constraints, and contradictions within regimes of accumulation. JEL Classification: O10, O53, P16 Keywords: Chinese state, formation of a capitalist class, two-way movement, accumulation regime, developmental state ∗[email protected] [email protected] 1 1 Introduction Over the past four decades, the Chinese economy has undergone a transition from a state-socialist to a capitalism-dominated economy. This transition has given rise to not only the great transformation of the working class but also the formation of a domestic capitalist class. The economic transition has made the resurgence of the bourgeoisie particularly entwined with state structures.

Travaillant d’arrache-pied depuis 2013 à se débarrasser L principalement des alliés de Jiang Zemin, l’alliance Xi-Wang a enfin réussi à purger le Parti-État afin de positionner ses alliés. Ce faisant, la transition qui aura vraiment lieu cet automne n’est pas la transition Hu Jintao- Xi Jinping, celle-ci date déjà de 2012. La transition de 2017 est celle de la Chine des années 1990 à la Chine des années 2010, soitde la Chine de Jiang Zemin à celle de Xi Jinping. Ce sera également le début de l’ère des enfants de la révolution culturelle, des « zhiqing » [知青] (jeunesses envoyées en campagne), qui formeront une majorité au sein du Politburo et qui remanieront la Chine à leur manière. Avec les départs annoncés, Xi pourra enfin former son « bandi » [班底] – garde rapprochée – au sein du Politburo et effectivement mettre en place un agenda de politiques et non pas simplement des mesures visant à faire le ménage au cœur du Parti-État. Des 24 individus restants, entre 12 et 16 devront partir; 121 sièges (si l’on compte le siège rendu vacant de Sun Zhengcai) et 16 si Xi Jinping décide d’appliquer plus « sévèrement » la limite d’âge maintenant à 68 ans.

  • China's Corn Policy Shifting Into Producer Compensation System
    China’s corn policy shifting into producer compensation system: from price support to direct payment April 1st, 2017 Norinchukin Research Institute Co., Ltd. RUAN Wei, Research Counselor ■Abstract China embarked upon a full-fledged marketization of the economic system at the beginning of the 21st Century, in which Chinese authorities introduced a price support policy for farmers with income transfer being accompanied in order to realize a balanced growth of agriculture with non-agricultural sectors as well as to boost food production in the country. Increases in farmers’ income and food production were concurrently achieved by raising the support prices. At the same time, however, this has brought about a reversal of price difference between imported grains and domestically produced ones. In addition, lower tariff rates on imported grains, which China committed itself at its accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO), also caused a rapid inflow of imported cheap grains to the Chinese market. Domestically produced grains lost competiveness in the market, which has resulted in piling unsold grains as government’s reserves up to an unprecedented level. Since the year of 2014, China began to change its policy for soybean and corn producers from price support programs to direct payment programs such as a target price system (or deficiency payment) and a producer compensation system. Some effects, including price declines of domestically produced grains and curbed imports, have been already confirmed. Concurrently, however, these policy changes have caused decreases in producers’ profits and an amount of domestic production as well. This paper will focus on China’s producer compensation system applied for corn producers.

  • Cross-Border Data Transfer Piloting – Hainan Free Trade Port Policy Briefing | December 2020
    Sino-German Cooperation on Industrie 4.0 Cross-Border Data Transfer Piloting – Hainan Free Trade Port Policy Briefing | December 2020 Recently, a number of local governments have been releasing different implementation plans relating to cross-border data transfer. The exploration of facilitating the safe and orderly flow of data across borders has been put on the agenda and is progressing step by step. Current regulatory framework China's regulations and standards on data cross-border transfer are still in the process of being developed. Although China has formulated laws and regulations on cyber security and data flows, specific regulations on cross-border data flow are still not in place. Relevant Articles in Released Documents: A security assessment system for data cross-border transfer was first specified in the Cybersecurity Law in 2017: “Critical information infrastructure operators that gather or produce personal information or important data during operations within the mainland territory of the People’s Republic of China, shall store it within mainland China. Where due to business requirements it is truly necessary to provide it outside the mainland, they shall follow the measures jointly formulated by the state cybersecurity and informatization departments and the relevant departments of the State Council to conduct a security assessment; where laws and administrative regulations provide otherwise, follow those provisions.” (Article 37)1 Based on the Cybersecurity Law, several regulations and guidance on the security assessment of cross-border transfer of personal information or important data have been published, including Security Assessment Method on Personal Information and Important Data Cross-Border Transfer (Draft) and Information Security Technology- Guidelines for Data Cross-Border Transfer Security Assessment (Draft).
