摘要

传统观点认为,一党制政权本质上敌视公民社会,因为有组织的公民会威胁到政权的政治主导地位。与这一观点相反,作者认为,在一党制下,当真正自愿的民间社会组织能够帮助有效解决经济现代化引起的社会内部分配冲突时,政府可能会容忍,甚至积极推动这些组织。本文以中国的业主协会(hoas)为例表明,当公民经常要求当局干预并裁决他们与房地产开发和管理公司的纠纷时,地方当局更有可能颁布鼓励自组织hoas发展的政策。一项工具变量估计表明,这种关系可能是因果关系,对机制的进一步分析表明,当公民的投诉针对企业而不是政府行为者时,他们最有效地引发了亲华政策。这些发现突出了民间社会组织在街头治理中的重要作用,并对多元因素如何在非自由主义制度中出现提供了细致入微的解释。

The Rise of Grassroots Civil Society under One-Party Rule: The Case of China's Homeowner Associations
abstract:Conventional wisdom holds that one-party regimes are intrinsically hostile to civil society because organized citizens can threaten the regime's political dominance. Contrary to this view, the authors argue that genuinely voluntary civil society organizations may be tolerated, or even actively promoted, by governments in a one-party system when those organizations can help to efficiently resolve intrasocietal distributional conflicts arising from economic modernization. Using China's homeowner associations (hoas) as a case, the article demonstrates that local authorities are more likely to promulgate policies that encourage the development of self-organized hoas when citizens frequently call upon the authorities to intervene and adjudicate their disputes with property development and management companies. An instrumental variables estimation suggests that the relationship is likely to be causal, and additional analyses on mechanisms reveal that citizens' complaints are most effective in eliciting pro-hoa policies when they are targeted at business rather than government actors. These findings highlight an important function of civil society organizations in street-level governance and offer a nuanced interpretation of how pluralistic elements may emerge in nonliberal systems.
