Charlotte P. Lee considers organizational changes taking place
within the contemporary Chinese Communist Party (CCP), examining
the party's renewed emphasis on an understudied but core set of
organizations: party-managed training academies or 'party schools'.
This national network of organizations enables party authorities to
exert political control over the knowledge, skills, and careers of
officials. Drawing on in-depth field research and novel datasets,
Lee finds that the party school system has not been immune to
broader market-based reforms but instead has incorporated many of
the same strategies as actors in China's hybrid, state-led private
sector. In the search for revenue and status, schools have updated
training content and become more entrepreneurial as they compete
and collaborate with domestic and international actors. This book
draws attention to surprising dynamism located within the party, in
political organizations thought immune to change, and the
transformative effect of the market on China's political system.
