Political economy of compassion: China's 'charity supermarket' saga / Shue, Vivienne   Journal Article
Shue, Vivienne Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract With a focus on Tianjin, this article examines the recent widespread establishment of 'charity supermarkets' in China's cities. Inspired by the example of certain 'thrift shops' in the US, charity supermarkets were set up for the purpose of assisting the urban poor. Several contrasting contemporary discourses within China concerning poverty, charity, business, and the proper roles of the market, state, and community in the delivery of social welfare are explored. The differing perspectives revealed throw an interesting light on why China's charity supermarkets have not, so far, developed as anticipated. This interesting urban social experiment is analyzed as a case study in the potential to achieve effective 'mutual empowerment' of state and society in the contemporary Chinese context.
