摘要

摘要近几十年来，作为“行政区划调整”（ADA）的一种主要形式，县区合并（车县改区）在中国城市中以惊人的频率发生。尽管县合并的风险很高，但学者们尚未系统地分析影响此类改革何时何地发生的政治变量。为了解决这一差距，作者收集了一个新的数据集，以研究不同政府层面的制度和领导因素与县合并发生率之间的关系。这一分析强调了国家领导优先事项在决定县合并频率和区域分布方面的重要性。研究还发现，至少在中央政策允许度更高的时候，城市的议价能力是哪些地方进行县合并的有力预测因素。

The Multilevel Politics of County-to-District Mergers in China

ABSTRACT County-to-district mergers (chexian gaiqu), a major form of ’administrative division adjustment’ (ADA), have occurred with striking frequency across Chinese cities in recent decades. Despite the high stakes of county mergers, scholars have yet to systematically analyze the political variables that shape where and when such reforms occur. Addressing this gap, the authors assemble a novel dataset to examine the relationship between institutional and leadership factors at different government levels and the incidence of county mergers. This analysis highlights the importance of national leadership priorities in shaping the frequency and regional distribution of county mergers. It also finds that, at least in times of greater central policy permissiveness, the bargaining power of cities is a strong predictor of which localities carry out county mergers.
