This course offers a conceptual framework for understanding China that highlights the intersection of politics and economics. It shows that instead of becoming a full-fledged market economy, state and party officials at all levels of the political system maintain significant influence on economic development. Such a “political” economy has had both positive and negative results, which we will evaluate in detail. We also look at the origins, viewpoints, backgrounds, and relationships among leaders, and how those leaders make public policy decisions and try to implement those decisions system-wide. China has few formal institutions through which citizens can participate in politics, but we will study the strategies that the Chinese use to try to influence the decisions of their leaders. Finally, we assess the future of China and whether rapid economic development and the rise of a vibrant middle class will propel China toward greater democracy or whether the one-party system is likely to survive into the future. The course is quite a useful foundation for part 2 of China Politics: China and the World. Course overview video: https://youtu.be/7FpNL67EbE4
