  • Contemporary Chinese Politics
    Contemporary Chinese Politics Contemporary Chinese Politics considers how new and diverse sources and methods are changing the study of Chinese politics. Contributors spanning three generations in China studies place their distinct qualitative and quantitative meth- odological approaches in the framework of the discipline and point to challenges or opportunities (or both) of adapting new sources and methods to the study of contemporary China. How can we more effectively use new sources and methods of data collection? How can we better integrate the study of Chinese politics into the discipline of political science, to the betterment of both? How can we more appropriately manage the logistical and ethical problems of doing political research in the challenging Chinese environment? In addressing these questions, this comprehensive methodological survey will be of immense interest to graduate students heading into the fi eld for the fi rst time and experienced scholars looking to keep abreast of the state of the art in the study of Chinese politics. Allen Carlson is an associate professor in Cornell University’s Government Department. He is the author of Unifying China, Integrating with the World: Securing Chinese Sovereignty during the Reform Era (2005) and the coeditor (with J. J. Suh and Peter Katzenstein) of Rethinking Security in East Asia: Power, Identity and Effi ciencies (2004). His articles have appeared in the Journal of Contemporary China and Pacifi c Affairs . Mary E. Gallagher is an associate professor of political science at the University of Michigan and the director of the Center for Chinese Studies. She is also a faculty associate at the Center for Comparative Political Studies at the Institute for Social Research.

  • Containment Or Engagement of China? 1 181
    Containment or ~ David Shambaugh Engagement of China? Calculating Beijing’s Responses that the People’s Republic of China (PRC) is becoming a defining element in post-Cold War international politics, but there is much debate about what this entails and how the world should deal with an ascendant China. China’s rise and behavior are particularly bedeviling to the United States, but Beijing also poses substantial challenges to Asian and European nations as well as interna- tional regimes. Whether China will become a military threat to its neighbors, an adversary of the United States, a systemic challenge to the global order, or an cultural-ideological challenge to the West remain open questions.’ But China’s sheer size and growing power are already altering the contours of Asian security, international commerce, and the global balance of power. A robust debate is under way in Western and Asian nations about how best to deal with the awakened dragon. The uncertainties about China’s future capabilities and intentions, and the debate about alternative policy options, have spawned a lucrative cottage industry among analysts and pundits in academia, corporations, banks, governments, and the media worldwide. Ana- lysts can reasonably estimate China’s economic and military power a decade or more hence based on its present and projected financial, technological and material resources. Far more difficult to predict is China’s internal political and social cohesion, and how Beijing will wield its new strength. Will China be a satisfied mature power

  • Chinese Studies and Beyond
    Chinese Studies and Beyond Kjeld Erik Brødsgaard Many different conceptual approaches and models have been used to analyze contemporary Chinese history and politics. Some of the more commonly used include “totalitarianism,” “two-line struggle,” “clientelism,” “tendency analysis,” “political culture,” “interest group poli- tics,” “bureaucratic politics,” “corporatism,” “civil society,” “fragmented authoritarianism,” etc. (Brødsgaard 1989; Guo 2013). This paper will survey these approaches in order to place the analysis of contemporary Chinese politics and history in a comparative perspective. A survey of the field will remind us that contemporary China studies have increasingly developed into a collective effort and that no scholar conducts his/her research in a vacuum devoid of debt to other contributions in the field. The paper will focus on the period since the Cultural Revolution. Consequently, we will not attempt a discussion of the totalitarian model which heavily dominated the China field in the 1950s. Tendency Models Tendency analysis derives its name from an important article by Franklyn Griffiths which took issue with the interest group approach to the study of Soviet politics (Griffiths, 1971). Griffiths argues that the interest group approach assumes that the policy formation process is to be under- stood in terms of the interaction of subsystems such as interest groups, government institutions, and political leadership. He suggests that the process rather should be viewed from the perspec- tive of a system dominant conflict of tendencies. By tendencies he means “alternate possible directions of value allocation ...” or “pattern(s) of articulation associated with a loose coalition of actors operating at different levels of the political structure whose articulation tend in the same direction but who are unlikely to be aware of the common thrust and consequences of their activity” (Griffiths, 1971: 336, 358).
