For my grandfather, who taught me to ask questions Foreword: Needless to say, this project has been possible only because of the help, advice, and guidance of many people. It has been a real privilege to be allowed to dig into a subject for such an extended period of time, and with the support of many people and the resources offered by CBS and SDC. Many people have served as inspiration, as teachers, as guides, and many have given advice and tips without knowing. The most important ones, however, deserve credit here. First and foremost, Kjeld Erik Brødsgaard has been central for making this project possible, and his patient advice and inclusive style of guidance can hardly be over-appreciated. Jørgen Delman deserves my thanks for stirring my interest in Chinese politics, and opening my mind to the possibilities of a life in academia. Along the way, countless discussions with colleagues and friends have helped me develop my ideas. Among these, the many discussions and teaching sessions with Andreas Møller Mulvad have been a constant and inspiring source of theoretical insights, as well as one of my most important testing grounds for the development of arguments and concepts. The (too few) discussions and exchanges with Wendy Leutert and her inquisitive and well-structured mind have been a great inspiration, and a reminder to the importance of being thorough and attentive to details. I have also gained from the constructive advice from Sarah Eaton, Nis Høyrup and Ari Kokko, among many others. I thank my family for the unquestioned support of the odd and enigmatic life I chose (i.e. academia). My two brothers and sister for sharing their youth (and wine) with me. A big Cheers to my many good old friends, Müller, Janus, Christian, Iona, Elisabeth, Camilla, Jakob, Bjørn, Mau and all the others, who have put up with my coming and going for years now, always leaving the door open once “I’m back from China”. They are, after all, the reason I come back at all. Axi deserves special thanks for helping me through a dark time. I am very grateful for the support and daily collegiality at the Asia Research Centre and INT: Li Xin, Louise Lyngfeld Gorm Hansen, Kristina Kazuhara, Carsten Boyer Thøgersen, and all those who have part of the fruitful discussions, lunch table speculations on 3Chinese politics, and not least the always friendly atmosphere at ARC. SDC has been not only a financial support, but has also become a place for intellectual development and colleagues, and I am very grateful to be part of the ambitious project. Here, Lars Bo Kaspersen, has been an important source of inspiration, but also Duncan Wigan and Antje Vetterlein are to be thanked for integrating me in the SDC activities. Susanne Faurholdt, Pia Lyndgaard and Bente Ramovic need to be thanked, they have had a vital role in making this project float administratively. Finally, I am grateful for the financial support of The East Asiatic Company Foundation, Otto Mønsteds Fond, and the Sino-Danish Center. 4 Abstract: The present dissertation is a compilation of three individual papers, and an introduction chapter. While the introduction lays out the theoretic backdrop of the project as a whole, the papers represent interventions into three specific dimensions of China’s Party-state order: structural organizational issues, decision-making institutions, and political economic dynamics. These three dimensions are presented as aspects of the same political organizational order, a Party-state order assembled around the hegemony of the Communist Party of China’s (CPC), conceptualized in the introduction using a Gramsci-inspired theory of the state. Employing a historical institutional approach, the three papers engage with specific strands of literatures of China Studies in a conceptual and theoretic manner, while also contributing with empirical findings. They discuss the concept of Fragmented Authoritarianism (FA), the organization and institutionalization of Leading Small Groups, and the social embeddedness of state-owned enterprise (SOE). FA has been an influential concept to explain structural issues of China’s bureaucracy, and with China’s energy administration as example, I review its value as a theoretic notion today, 30 years after its inception. Discussing the growing importance of Leading Small Groups, the second paper addresses some of the institutional “fixes” to decision- making and policy coordination, which have evolved in response to structural fault-lines described in the FA paper. The third paper takes the dissertation into the political economic dimension of the Party-state order, providing a case study of how China National Petroleum Corporation, a central, state-owned and CPC led SOE, is organizationally rooted in its local operations, remaining institutionally embedded in local society through its legacy as a socialist work unit (danwei). Using Polanyi’s concept of embeddedness, the paper reveals how SOEs are split into two tiers each tasked with the respective objectives of economic development and political stability, and thus as Party-state organizations are used to flexibly support CPC hegemony. 5 6 Table of Contents: p. 3 Foreword p. 5 Abstract p. 7 Table of Contents p. 8 Abbreviations p. 9 Introduction: Conceptualizing China as Party-state order p. 50 Paper 1: Revisiting Fragmented Authoritarianism in China’s Central Energy Administration p. 80 Paper 2: The Rise of “Leading Small Group Governance”: Evidence of Fragmentation or Source of Resilience? p. 107 Paper 3: Learning From Daqing – Again: The Local Embeddedness of a National Champion p. 164 Concluding Remarks 7 Abbreviations: CNPC: China National Petroleum Corporation CNOOC: China National Offshore Oil Corporatino CPC: Communist Party of China DPA: Daqing Petroleum Administration FA: Fragmented Authoritarianism LSG: Leading Small Group LSGCDR: Leading Small Group for Comprehensively Deepening Reform MoE: Ministry of Energy MoF: Ministry of Finance NEA: National Energy Administration NEC: National Energy Commission NDRC: National Development and Reform Commission SASAC: State-owned Asset Supervision and Administration Commission SC: State Council SDPC: State Development and Planning Commission SERC: State Electricity Regulatory Commission SETC: State Economic and Trade Commission SOE: State-owned Enterprise 8 Introduction: Conceptualizing China as Party-state order “领导者...要有‘治大国如烹小鲜’的态度” 1 (Xi Jinping 2013) 1 Xi Jinping: “ruling a large country is like cooking small fish, this must be the conduct of leaders”, see: Xinhua 2013. He refers to a Lao Zi quote from the Dao De Jing: Ruling a large country is like cooking small fish, you fry it as a whole and don’t dissect it into parts. 9 Introduction and Research Motivation: The present dissertation is a collection of three independent but related articles, connected by their interest in the institutions and political organization of the Chinese Party-state order. The project takes its departure from research in China studies, but intersects with political science and political economics. One of the main interests of this

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The How and Why of Urban Preservation: Protecting Historic Neighborhoods in China A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Urban Planning by Jonathan Stanhope Bell 2014 © Copyright by Jonathan Stanhope Bell 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The How and Why of Preservation: Protecting Historic Neighborhoods in China by Jonathan Stanhope Bell Doctor of Philosophy in Urban Planning University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Anastasia Loukaitou-Sideris, Chair China’s urban landscape has changed rapidly since political and economic reforms were first adopted at the end of the 1970s. Redevelopment of historic city centers that characterized this change has been rampant and resulted in the loss of significant historic resources. Despite these losses, substantial historic neighborhoods survive and even thrive with some degree of integrity. This dissertation identifies the multiple social, political, and economic factors that contribute to the protection and preservation of these neighborhoods by examining neighborhoods in the cities of Beijing and Pingyao as case studies. One focus of the study is capturing the perspective of residential communities on the value of their neighborhoods and their capacity and willingness to become involved in preservation decision-making. The findings indicate the presence of a complex interplay of public and private interests overlaid by changing policy and economic limitations that are creating new opportunities for public involvement. Although the Pingyao case study represents a largely intact historic city that is also a World Heritage Site, the local ii focus on tourism has disenfranchised residents in order to focus on the perceived needs of tourists.

There was no news on what post, if any, Lou will go on to take. The change probably won’t have much impact on fiscal policy, according to Citigroup Inc.

    PROGRAMME ASIE QUELLE COMPOSITION DU POLITBURO ET DU COMITÉ CENTRAL CHINOIS APRÈS 2017 ? Par Alex PAYETTE STAGIAIRE POSTDOCTORAL CRSH UNIVERSITÉ DE MONTREAL OCTOBRE 2016 Septembre 2016 ASIA FOCUS #3 l’IRIS ASIA FOCUS #3 - PROGRAMME ASIE / Octobre 2016 lors que 2016 se termine et que la campagne anticorruption agressivement menée par la tristement célèbre « jiwei » [纪委] a pris fin, il ne reste que A quelques mois pour finaliser la sélection interne des cadres qui seront appelés à être élus en novembre au Politburo ainsi qu’au Comité central. Cela dit, depuis la fin de 2015, nous avons pu remarquer un certain durcissement, voire même un « repli » de la part de Xi, tant dans son attitude face au pouvoir (p. ex. retour aux idiomes/symboles maoïstes, méfiance ouverte de l’Occident, attitude de plus en plus inflexible en matière de structures internationales, etc.), que dans son attitude envers certains patriarches du Parti, notamment Jiang Zemin (président de la République populaire entre 1993 et 2003) et Hu Jintao (président de 2003 à 2013), ainsi qu’envers les autres forces en présence sur la scène politique chinoise (par exemple la Ligue des jeunesses communistes [共青团]1, la « faction du pétrole » [石油帮]2, la bande Shanghai [ 上海帮], la bande du Jiangxi [江派], etc.). Ce dernier a également resserré son emprise non seulement sur Beijing – par le biais de son proche collaborateur Wang Xiaohong [王 小洪]3-, mais bien aussi sur le pays en entier. Tandis que le temps d’« abattre les tigres » [打虎] et que les déraillements de la jiwei sont encore perceptibles, en particulier dans la province du Hebei4, fort est de constater que l’impact n’est pas celui escompté, sauf dans les cas de Su Shulin [苏树林]5 et Jiang Jiemin [蒋洁敏]6, et qu’il ne sera pas vraiment possible d’évaluer les dégâts de cette campagne avant la formation du Comité central de 2022.
