Sommario/riassunto

Disruptions as Opportunities: Governing Chinese Society with Interactive Authoritarianism addresses the long-standing puzzle of why China outlived other one-party authoritarian regimes with particular attention to how the state manages an emerging civil society. Drawing upon over 1,200 survey responses conducted in 126 villages in the Sichuan province, as well as 70 interviews conducted with Civil Society Organization (CSO) leaders and government officials, participant observation, and online research, the book proposes a new theory of interactive authoritarianism to explain how an adaptive authoritarian state manages nascent civil society. Sun argues that when new phenomena and forces are introduced into Chinese society, the Chinese state adopts a three-stage interactive approach toward societal actors: toleration, differentiation, and legalization without institutionalization. Sun looks to three disruptions--earthquakes, internet censorship, and social-media-based guerilla resistance to the ride-sharing industry--to test his theory about the three-stage interactive authoritarian approach and argues that the Chinese government evolves and consolidates its power in moments of crisis.

Sommario/riassunto

This book constitutes the refereed joint proceedings of the 1st International Workshop on Ethical & Philosophical Issues in Medical Imaging (EPIMI 2022); the 12th International Workshop on Multimodal Learning and Fusion Across Scales for Clinical Decision Support (ML-CDS 2022) and the 2nd International Workshop on Topological Data Analysis for Biomedical Imaging (TDA4BiomedicalImaging 2022), held in conjunction with the 25th International Conference on Medical Imaging and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2022, in Singapore, in September 2022. EPIMI includes five short papers about various humanistic aspects of medical image computing and computer-assisted interventions. The ML-CDS papers discuss machine learning on multimodal data sets for clinical decision support and treatment planning. The TDA papers focus on Topological Data Analysis: a collection of techniques and tools that have matured from an increasing interest in the role topologyplays in machine learning and data science.
