  • Who Gets Promoted and Why? Understanding Power and Persuasion in China's Cadre Evaluation System
    Who Gets Promoted and Why? Understanding Power and Persuasion in China’s Cadre Evaluation System Zhen Wang Department of Political Science Middle Tennessee State University Prepared for Delivery at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the American Association for Chinese Studies October 11-13, 2013 New Brunswick, New Jersey 1 Introduction The worldwide speculations that took place before China’s leadership change in 2012 suggest an uncomfortable fact that we know very little about how China’s political personnel system actually works. The authoritarian state is surely to blame for intentionally making the process secretive. But as political scientists, how do we move beyond guesswork and start making better sense of the system? What are the criteria that the Communist Party uses to promote or demote its officials? How are these criteria implemented? And what are the power mechanisms involved in the implementation process? A small group of political scientists have striven to make sense of this murky but highly important subject by examining either the Nomenklatura system at the central level or the Cadre Evaluation System (CES) at the level of sub- national governments. This paper seeks to contribute to this cause of a better understanding of the Communist Party’s personnel management system by further investigating the CES – a personnel management system that assesses the performance of leading local officials from the provincial down to the lowest local level. Based on six months of fieldwork combing interviews with archival research, I argue that China’s cadre evaluation system consists of two intrinsic power mechanisms – top-down control and local autonomy, and that there is more bargaining and negotiation involved in the cadre evaluation process than often assumed.

Abstract. Along with the rapidly increasing pressure of urban transportation, China's subway operation is facing the challenge of high-density passenger flow. In order to improve the level of subway operation and ensure its safety, it is necessary to analyze and study the operation status of the metro station under the condition of high-density passenger flow, and propose the corresponding improvement scheme. Taking Guangzhou Metro as the study object, this paper discusses and analyzes the operation and management status of Guangzhou Metro Station. And combined with the risks and deficiencies in the operation and organization of Guangzhou metro, effective improvement measures are proposed in this paper. Operation Status of Guangzhou Metro The first line of Guangzhou Metro opened on June 28, 1997, and Guangzhou became the fourth city in mainland China to open and operate the subway. As of April 26, 2018, Guangzhou Metro has 13 operating routes, with 391.6 km and 207 stations in total, whose opening mileage ranks third in China and fourth in the world now. As of July 24, 2018, Guangzhou Metro Line Network had transported 1.645 billion passengers safely, with an average daily passenger volume of 802.58 million, an increase of 7.88% over the same period of 2017 (7.4393 million).
