Even after the successful cultivation of the indigenous variety which emerged as the sole means of rescuing Britain from the “vice like control of China” over tea, negligence toward it was not completely vanished.

However, the consequences of these events have not been thoroughly examined. This study explores the economic consequences of political dismissals in China, one of the most durable authoritarian regimes in the world. In the face of dismissals, a regime's concern lies in ensuring that the dismissed officials do not cause antiregime sentiments toward the public. Therefore, the regime is willing to preempt the possibility by enhancing the state–public relationship. To realize this cooperation, the regime distributes economic benefits to the public. The satisfied public is unlikely to support the dismissed elites against the regime. By examining the government spending data of China's provinces, this paper demonstrates that the Chinese government compensates the local public by increasing government expenditures in the locality that has recently experienced a dismissal of one of its high-ranking officials.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"51 4","pages":"Pages 260-269"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134917376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These concerns and local people's marginality are typically conceptualised through different but singular lens of either biodiversity conservation, techno-managerial water management solutions, or lately climate change by different actors. Conversely, fishing communities advance a highly political discourse about the delta and situate their marginality in the historical socio-political processes and large-scale projects for taming the Indus River waters for agriculture development by the Pakistani state that reorganised their social space. This paper aims to understand how knowledge(s) about the Indus Delta are produced, legitimized, mobilized, and deployed to “solve” the “problems,” whereas other discourses such as those of the indigenous fishing communities remain marginal.

In the post-9/11 context, the global is immediately associated with the political and the political with the undesirable. On the other hand, the local is portrayed as peaceful, accommodative and, hence, desirable. Such teleological approaches produce a priori desire for the local and undermine the political, foreclosing Muslim political legitimacy. By shifting attention to the Muslim movements in Kerala, I emphasise the significance of the political and jurisprudence in the exploration of Muslim lives. I conclude that while the Muslim subjectivity is decisively framed within the constraints of security concerns, Hindu sensibility and modern citizenship, jurisprudence enables the Muslim subject to engage substantially within and beyond these constellations of power, imagining a sovereign register of Islamic ethos.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"51 4","pages":"Pages 244-251"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44486278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
