Building on a “practice-to-policy” experimentation-based framework, this paper investigates the adaptive policymaking process for urban regeneration in Shenzhen since the 2000s. It finds that “explorative experimentation” is used to identify a general direction in the absence of a clear route for the policy process, while “generative experimentation” is sequentially dedicated to specific issues for the improvement of the entire policy package within a particular reform. We argue that understanding the successive roles or hybrid functions of these two types of experiment adds new insights to the development rationales for Shenzhen's urban regeneration and provides inspiration for an experimental model of urban governance. Governments and policymakers can benefit from the experimentation-based approach, as presented in the Shenzhen case, to pursue policy innovation embedded in local contexts.","PeriodicalId":223807,"journal":{"name":"The China Quarterly","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115671935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the case of water governance, this article examines the interaction between these groups at three levels: the top-level design group, the riverine macroregion groups and the implementation groups. This governance model is designed to avoid nomenklatura failure, restrict fiscal federalism and reduce the agency problem between the centre and local leaders. For the purpose of water governance, China has been divided into five blocs based on river basins, which we call riverine macroregions. Using this approach, the Chinese Communist Party is combining water governance with regional development and enhancing local governments’ collective implementation of central policy.","PeriodicalId":223807,"journal":{"name":"The China Quarterly","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129309841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research also provides a template for future research in other sectors. The book appears to be a PhD dissertation that has been published without major redaction. As a result, it is both exhaustive and dense, though the quality of both writing and research justifies the length. The book demands of the reader an interest in policy theory, knowledge of power systems, a broad understanding of China’s political system and the willingness to dive deeply into all these topics. As a result, the readership is likely to be academics and advanced postgraduates in the field of public policy, political science or energy, with an interest in China and the willingness to engage across discipline boundaries. For those intimidated by the size of the book, a useful summary is provided by Gohli’s 2022 paper in Energy Research & Social Science 93, Article 102851.

Lu Xun’s critiques of Wenyi huabao guide the discussion in chapter four. Bevan attributes these bitter verbal attacks to the famous author’s longstanding enmity against Ye Lingfeng, and to Lu Xun’s desire to defend his turf as the main spokesperson for leftist art in China. Part three, “The Rise and Rise of the Pictorial Magazine,” shifts focus away from the largely monochrome left-wing woodcut print and toward the colourful cartoons, or manhua, that flourished in the milieu of the mid-1930s’magazine boom. Chapter five, after offering a background analysis of why 1934 came to be called “The Year of the Magazine,” turns its attention to bold cartoon-style magazine illustrations that thumbed their nose at Chiang Kai-shek’s puritanical New Life Movement. Balancing the discussion of the “New-sensationist” writers in chapter one, chapter six then looks at the work and careers of three visual artists – Guo Jianying, Huang Miaozi and Ye Qianyu – whose illustrations accompany the book’s four short story translations. The two chapters comprising part four, “The Shanghai Jazz Age,” examines the role of the pictorial magazine in generating the multilayered connections behind the city’s fascination with cinema, celebrity, illustration, literature and live music. Readers of “Intoxicating Shanghai” will be impressed with, and at times overwhelmed by, the amount of fine-grained detail Bevan has extracted from an array of primary sources, ranging from the American humour magazine Ballyhoo, to the book lists in Lu Xun’s private diaries, to Busby Berkeley’s cinematic extravaganzas. For researchers of Shanghai’s jazz-age culture, the extensive footnotes and bibliography cataloguing the book’s source materials provide a wealth of leads for further research. What one does not find in this book, however, is explicit engagement with existing scholarship on Shanghai’s globalized urban culture. In the end, however, one can well argue that the resolutely empirical approach informing all of “Intoxicating Shanghai” is precisely what sets it apart from the other studies of Republican-era Shanghai.","PeriodicalId":223807,"journal":{"name":"The China Quarterly","volume":"255 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128689969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
