on-going debate on China's development model presents a fascinating
yet very different image of Chinese exceptionalism, an idea that is
similar to American exceptionalism. Is China exceptionalism a myth
or reality? Will modern China, born of Confucian creeds, be
culturally, economically and politically distinct from Western
industrialized nations in an age of globalization? Does the
Confucian culture make any qualitative difference in China's
developmental path and her international behavior in dealing with
other nations? Will China be something of a paradox? Will this
claim of distinction be a double-edged sword that will eventually
hunt China in its future development? To decipher the complex
Chinese labyrinth, this coedited book explores the development of a
new social democracy, the Chinese vision of human rights and civil
society, the asymmetry between economic and political development
and the puzzle it presents, and the informal politics and Chinese
innovation on governance and problem solving. We will also present
a number of studies detailing innovations and systems that are
distinctively Chinese, including innovations at local governances,
the intriguing relationship between NGOs and the state, the
grievance-addressing system (xinfang), and the co-existence of
atheists and theists in China. As a multi-disciplinary research
project, it attempts to shed some lights on these important
questions.
