Extract

The three articles which follow provide a review of the development of the study of domestic Chinese politics over the last decade. The first, by Elizabeth Perry of the University of California at Berkeley, is on state-society relations. The second, by Avery Goldstein of the University of Pennsylvania, deals with political elites and institutions. The third, by Peter Moody of the University of Notre Dame, addresses the study of political culture. Although the three essays do not claim to provide an exhaustive survey of the analysis of Chinese politics, they do offer a reasonably comprehensive overview of the field in the early 1990s.

This workshop was one of the first special panels to be held under the auspices of the Conference Group on China Studies, which was created by Professor Quansheng Zhao of Old Dominion University to increase the attention devoted to Chinese politics at the annual meetings of the APSA. The workshop also heard a paper by Quansheng Zhao on the study of Chinese foreign policy.
