It contrasts fragmented authoritarianism, which places bureaucratic bargaining at the centre of policy-making, arguing that the goals and interests of the implementing agencies have to be incorporated into a policy if implementation is to be secured, with other characterisations of China?s political process. Individual chapters consider fragmented authoritarianism at work in a range of key policy areas, including energy issues, climate change and environmental management, financial reform, and civil-military relations. The book also explores policy making at the national, provincial, city and local levels; debates how far the model of fragmented authoritarianism is valid in its current form or whether modifications are needed; and discusses whether the system of policy making and implementation is overcomplicated, unwieldy and ineffective or whether it is constructive in enabling widespread consultation and scope for imagination, flexibility and variation. 410 0$aChina policy series ;$v44. 606 $aPolitical planning$zChina 606 $aAuthoritarianism$zChina 606 $aBureaucracy$zChina 606 $aMedical policy$zChina 606 $aEnvironmental policy$zChina 607 $aChina$xPolitics and government$y2002- 615 0$aPolitical planning 615 0$aAuthoritarianism 615 0$aBureaucracy 615 0$aMedical policy 615 0$aEnvironmental policy 676 $a320.951 702 $aBrødsgaard$b Kjeld Erik 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819656703321 996 $aChinese politics as fragmented authoritarianism$93942931 997 $aUNINA
