Sun Liping on Three Child Family, Lying Flat

15/6/2021

 
​New on the site this fortnight:

Two short texts from sociologist Sun Liping on recent issues in China—China’s aspirational “three child policy” and the phenomenon of “lying flat.”
 
Also, Qian Liqun on the relationship between Chinese intellectuals and China’s rural villages over the course of the 20th century.
 
Finally, New Confucian Kang Xiaoguang and New Left political scientist Wang Shaoguang discuss China’s Third Sector, a text from 2011 that makes us think about where China’s civil society is (or is not) headed.
 
Enjoy!

Zhao Tingyang "Reboots" Democracy

2/6/2021

 
New on the site:

​Philosopher Zhao Tingyang, famous for his “tianxia system,” seeks to use ancient Chinese wisdom to “reboot” democracy in his “A Feasible Smart Democracy.”

In addition, in the context to the run-up to the 100-year anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Communist Party next month, two texts illustrating the overlap between propaganda and the work of establishment intellectuals:

Zhang Cheng, “The Methodology of the Chinese Path:  China as Center and Method”

Zhang Xianming, “The Logic of the Politics of Responsibility in Full-Process Democracy”

Finally, a text for our “Women’s Voices” project:  Chang Yinting and Yang Xia, “Feminist Discourse:  Its Chinese Context and Contemporary Value”

Enjoy!
