This book theorizes Chinese politics, specifically about China's
"deliberative democracy (xieshang minzhu )". Creating a China-West
comparative framework, the author interrogates China's government's
claims to give representation to citizens, allowing readers to see
how all of these concepts interact within Chinese ideology,
democratic discourse, and governance, and their relationship with
Chinese authoritarianism. Above all, this book represents a
sustained hybridization of political theory, one which is neither a
simple democratic-authoritarian dichotomy, nor a reinterpretation
of the official propaganda. This study will interest scholars of
Chinese politics and statecraft, shedding light on an emergent
discourse of the state - Chinese xieshang minzhu. More importantly,
this book goes beyond a simple rhetorical and linguistic use of
'deliberative democracy' in the Western sense, and rather
emphasizes the very consultative nature of Chinese politics, which
facilitates and reconsolidates Chinese authoritarianism.
