China has undergone dramatic change in its economic institutions in
recent years, but surprisingly little change politically. Somehow,
the political institutions seem capable of governing a vastly more
complex market economy and a rapidly changing labor force. One
possible explanation, examined in Zouping Revisited, is that within
the old organizational molds there have been subtle but profound
changes to the ways these governing bodies actually work. The
authors take as a case study the local government of Zouping County
and find that it has been able to evolve significantly through ad
hoc bureaucratic adaptations and accommodations that drastically
change the operation of government institutions. Zouping has long
served as a window into local-level Chinese politics, economy, and
culture. In this volume, top scholars analyze the most important
changes in the county over the last two decades. The picture that
emerges is one of institutional agility and creativity as a new
form of resilience within an authoritarian regime.
