Description
According to common misconception the Chinese political system is highly centralized.
One result of this widely accepted view is that China specialists have often neglected the study of decision-making as a process.
Concentrating upon the neighbouring but contrasting provinces of Sichuan and Guizhou during the decade before the Cultural Revolution, this book examines the interaction between centre and province and, without adopting a 'centralist' or a 'pluralist' viewpoint, argues that a spatial dimension is of necessity part of the Chinese decision-making process.
Particular attention is paid to the variability of this interaction over time.
