Continuity/discontinuity: China's place in the contemporary world / Pozzana, Claudia; Russo, Alessandro   Journal Article
Pozzana, Claudia Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract Starting from issues Wang Hui raises in "The Dialectics of Autonomy and Opening" (Critical Asian Studies 43:2), the authors of this article focus on the problematic coexistence of continuities and discontinuities in modern and contemporary Chinese politics. China's present role in the international scene, they argue, cannot be assessed in terms of economic performance, but requires new perspectives for rethinking the search of China for an original path in domestic politics, as well as the universalistic attitude toward the various forms of thinking coming from all over the world.

Cultivating rice and votes: the institutional origins of agricultural protectionism in Japan / Horiuchi, Yusaku; Saito, Jun   Journal Article
Horiuchi, Yusaku Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract We explore in this article an institutional foundation of agricultural protectionism in Japan, a country long recognized as resisting international pressures to open up its rice market. Using our qualitative analysis of postwar politics of agricultural protectionism and a simple formal model, we argue that farmers in Japan have stronger incentives to mobilize electoral support for the governing party in multimember district systems than in single-member district systems, because the marginal effects of mobilization on policy benefits are different under these electoral systems. Our empirical findings corroborate this claim and provide implications for the gradual changes in Japan's farm policies occurring after the electoral reform in 1994.
