As the country has experienced fundamental changes in its demographic, economic, social and environmental structures, demands on public services have been increasing tremendously, and have become unprecedentedly diverse. In response, innovations to provide new services, expand service recipients, adopt new technologies, engage partners, and streamline service processes have been employed widely in China to increase service efficiency, enhance quality, enlarge coverage, and improve citizen satisfaction. This book examines prominent cases of public service innovations in China, disclosing their causes, patterns, diffusion, and effects. These cases provide interesting evidence about the nature and effectiveness of public service innovations in China while highlighting to what extent these innovations can be explained by accepted theories and whether new theory buildingis needed. This book will be of value to academics and policymakers seeking to understand the evolving Chinese political system. . 410 0$aGoverning China in the 21st Century,$x2730-6976 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aAsia$xPolitics and government 606 $aPublic law 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aAsian Politics 606 $aPublic Law 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aAsia$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aPublic law. 615 14$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aAsian Politics. 615 24$aPublic Law. 676 $a320.6 702 $aJing$b Yijia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aOsborne$b Stephen P$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910157631503321 996 $aPublic Service Innovations in China$92177065 997 $aUNINA
