SUMMARY:Critical Issues Confronting China featuring Kellee Tsai - Evolutionary Governance under Authoritarianism in Contemporary China
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Kellee Tsai\, Dean of Humanities and Social Science and Chair Professor of Social Science\, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology \nThe structural transformation of China over the past several decades has given rise to a fundamental tension between the pursuit of social stability and authoritarian resilience.  On the one hand\, repressive strategies enable the party-state to maintain its monopoly of political power (authoritarianism). On the other hand\, the quality of governance is enhanced when the state adopts softer modes of engagement with society (resilience).  This dilemma lies at the core of evolutionary governance under authoritarianism.  This talk engages the vast “authoritarianism with adjectives” literature in the study of contemporary China and presents case studies of state-society interactions to offer insight into the circumstances under which the party-state exerts its coercive power versus engaging in more flexible responses or policy adaptations. \nPresented via Zoom Webinar \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTranscript: Download Transcript
