Despite many predictions of collapse and disintegration, China has
managed to sustain unity and gain international stature since the
Tiananmen crisis of 1989. Originally published in 2004, this volume
addresses the 'fragmentation/disintegration thesis' and examines
the sources and dynamics of China's resilience. Through
theoretically informed empirical studies, the volume's authors look
at key institutions for political integration and economic
governance. They also dissect how difficult policies to regulate
economic and social life (employment and migration, population
planning, industrial adjustment, and regional disparities) are
designed and implemented. The authors show that China's leaders
have retained authoritarian political institutions, but have also
reinforced and modified them, constructing fresh ones in the light
of changing circumstances. Institutional and policy adaptations
together have helped shore up political authority and create an
environment for rapid growth, while accommodating growing
diversity.
