Abstract

Citizen participation in policy making is essential in democracies, but there is much less understanding of the process and substance of it in non-democratic states. Taking local budgetary process as an example, this article compares three pathways of participatory reform undertaken by the communist regime in China, namely the representative pathway, the consultative pathway and the transparency pathway. All three are initiated and administered by the local governments, but differ in a number of crucial aspects from the level of institutionalisation to the form of state– citizenry interaction. These three pathways provide directions the Party-state might consider for nationwide policy reform.
威权主义下的参与式决策:中华人民共和国地方预算改革的路径
在民主国家,公民参与决策至关重要,但在非民主国家,人们对决策过程和实质的理解要少得多。本文以地方预算流程为例,比较了中国共产党政权进行参与式改革的三种路径,即代表性路径、协商路径和透明度路径。这三者都是由地方政府发起和管理的,但从制度化水平到国家-公民互动的形式,在许多关键方面都有所不同。这三条路径为党国可能考虑的全国性政策改革提供了方向。
