This book offers the very first collaborative analysis of various
conditions and aspects of developmental citizenship in China and
its practical and ideological implications for Chinese
post-socialism. Development in post-socialist China – much like
development in China’s industrialized capitalist neighbors – is
a collective political economic project which simultaneously
involves political, social, as well as economic dimensions of
public governance. In such a historical context, developmental
citizenship is a generic category of citizenship in practice, not
reducible to separate civil, political, or social rights. Improving
people’s material livelihood through augmented jobs and incomes
has become the raison d’etre of post-socialist dictatorial
politics in China (and a host of other post-socialist nations). A
careful and comprehensive observation of post-Mao China in
citizenship perspective reveals the practical centrality of
developmental citizenship in post-socialist social governance. If
China is compared with its industrialized capitalist neighbors such
as Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan as to their common sociopolitical
order of national developmentalism, the pervasive scope and
systemic varieties of developmental citizenship-in-practice are
easily discovered. The chapters in this book were originally
published as a special issue of the journal Citizenship Studies.
