ABSTRACT How did geo-economic and technological competition between the United States and China arise? And what is the Chinese perspective on the US-China rivalry? In this forum article, we analyze the conflict from a critical political economy perspective. We argue that the US has mobilized its structural power as the leading high-tech country in global value chains to curtail China’s ascent. By elucidating Chinese responses to American structural power, we shed light on the development and complexities of this conflict, thereby contributing to a more profound comprehension of the US-China geo-economic competition. We conclude that the intensifying US-Chinese rivalry has the potential to foster a new era of public policies characterized by global statism.
摘要美国和中国之间的地缘经济和技术竞争是如何产生的?中国对美中竞争有何看法?在这篇论坛文章中,我们从批判性政治经济学的角度来分析这场冲突。我们认为,美国已经调动了其作为全球价值链中领先高科技国家的结构性力量,以遏制中国的崛起。通过阐明中国对美国结构性力量的反应,我们了解了这场冲突的发展和复杂性,从而有助于更深刻地理解美中地缘经济竞争。我们得出的结论是,美中竞争的加剧有可能催生一个以全球国家主义为特征的公共政策新时代。

ABSTRACT Most research in policy transfer studies focused on cases of policies originating from the ‘Global North’. However, recently countries of the ‘Global South’ became sources of models. With the exception of a few studies, literature has not considered these developments. This paper aims at contributing to this direction, by proposing an agenda drawn from policy transfer studies as well as from the observation of Brazil’s and China’s engagement in policy transfer. This exercise helps highlight a series of aspects overlooked by the literature. Understanding their motivations, their timing and other important aspects related to these processes can shed new light on policy transfer phenomena. New research questions are introduced and illustrated by examples from Brazil and China.

The politics of patrolling ‘safety guards’ in Sweden: outsourcing, depoliticization, and immunization 瑞典巡逻“安全警卫”的政治:外包、去政治化和免疫

ABSTRACT The contracting of private guards to patrol public spaces has rapidly become a widespread approach to increase public safety and prevent crime in Swedish municipalities. Drawing on interviews and policy materials from three municipalities, this paper examines how private patrolling guards has become a solution to (un)safety in Sweden, and the political implications of this development. The governmentality analysis shows how the rendering of (un)safety as technical and governable depoliticizes safety by detaching it from its social and political connotations. At the same time, in the process of demarcating the space to be ‘guarded,’ safety is problematized as a matter of order and sameness in public space, which (re)produces racialized boundaries between those to be made safe and those considered threatening safety. The study further demonstrates how the outsourcing of responsibility for public safety to the security industry is bringing about a shift in democratic legitimacy, accountability, and the monopoly on the use of force, largely without political contestation in the studied municipalities. The paper concludes by discussing the underlying rationale of this practice of governing (un)safety as informed by a biopolitical logic of immunization: safeguarding and immunizing some, at the expense of those marked as risky ‘others’.

Media and the staging of policy controversy: obesity and the UK sugar tax 媒体与阶段性政策争议:肥胖与英国糖税

In response to the perceived risk to health posed by obesity, governments in over 40 countries have introduced sugar taxes (also known as soda taxes), often as part of wider plans to improve national food environments. In this study we apply critical discourse analysis (CDA) to analyze 29 television news interviews addressing the sugar tax, in order to expose how and why media companies and the experts involved stage and maintain controversy. Our analysis provides evidence of a broad range of devices, ranging from the macro choice of interviewees and the role of the interviewer to their micro level rhetorical choices. They also include experts molding the same evidence to support their position and interviewers posing questions they know will result in a blunt contradiction. While individually each device may appear relatively inconsequential, their repeated use generates possibilities for selfperpetuating intertextuality and provides a sense of intractability that contributes to public disengagement with the issue. The value of studies such as this is to elucidate the use, ubiquity and effects of these devices that may otherwise go unnoticed or unquestioned.
为了应对肥胖对健康造成的风险,40多个国家的政府已经开始征收糖税(也称为苏打税),这通常是改善国家食品环境的更广泛计划的一部分。在本研究中,我们运用批判性话语分析(CDA)分析了29个电视新闻采访中关于糖税的问题,以揭示媒体公司和专家如何以及为什么参与其中并维持争议。我们的分析提供了广泛的手段的证据,从宏观的选择受访者和采访者的角色到微观层面的修辞选择。专家们也会用同样的证据来支持自己的观点,面试官也会提出一些他们知道会导致直接矛盾的问题。虽然单独来看,每个设备可能显得相对无关紧要,但它们的重复使用产生了自我延续的互文性的可能性,并提供了一种棘手的感觉,有助于公众脱离这个问题。这类研究的价值在于阐明这些设备的使用、无处不在和影响,否则这些设备可能会被忽视或不受质疑。

Hayek’s theory of mind and the origins of the neoliberal critique of modern liberalism 哈耶克的心智理论和新自由主义对现代自由主义批判的起源

ABSTRACT Although it is broadly accepted that neoliberalism emerged as a reaction to what its foundational thinkers believed was a crisis of modern liberalism, little work has been done to understand either the timing or the nature of the intellectual shift that gave rise to it. Through an assessment of Friedrich Hayek’s thought, this article claims that the neoliberal critique of liberalism is primarily grounded in an epistemological dispute about the capabilities of mind that can be traced to the early nineteenth century and the development of Jeremy Bentham’s universal principle of self-preference. Hayek’s epistemological perspective, anchored in a theory of the understanding, and Bentham’s conception of mind as plastic, knowable, measurable, and reformable, led each thinker to embrace vastly different constitutional models. This epistemological dispute is critical to grasp, not merely for historical precision, but also because many of its essential features lurk at the heart of contemporary debates about the rise of an anti-democratic neoliberalism, and the future of liberal democracy.

Decolonizing the temporal and relational assumptions in contemporary science and science policies 当代科学和科学政策中的时间和关系假设的去殖民化

ABSTRACT The concept of decolonization was originally proposed as an epistemic project that focused on anti-hegemonic endeavors to counter power imbalances. However, in recent years, it has become a buzz word across different fields in the Global North, often slipping into a tokenistic exercise. This paper argues that the decolonizing promise of moving beyond power asymmetries and acquiring the ability ‘to think from and with’ others will not be fulfilled unless we take seriously the need for a radical shift in recognizing global others’ epistemic status. Drawing on empirical case studies of China’s and India’s rises in the life sciences and their respective impacts on Anglo-American policy discussions, this paper demonstrates what decolonizing our temporal and spatial (or relational) assumptions of contemporary science could mean in practice. More importantly, it argues that decolonization in the pluriverse of contemporary science should simultaneously be a radical and prudent project. As such, decolonizing is not only a challenge for the Global North but also for the Global South. The decolonization project argued for in this paper is conducive to a fresh ontological attention of critical policy studies and a recalibrated relational focus of governing practices.
摘要非殖民化概念最初是作为一个认识论项目提出的,其重点是反霸权努力以对抗权力失衡。然而,近年来,它已经成为全球北方不同领域的热门词汇,经常演变成一种象征性的做法。本文认为,除非我们认真对待在承认全球他人的认识地位方面发生根本转变的必要性,否则,超越权力不对称、获得“从他人那里思考并与他人一起思考”的非殖民化承诺将无法实现。本文通过对中国和印度在生命科学领域的崛起及其各自对英美政策讨论的影响的实证案例研究,展示了我们对当代科学的时间和空间(或关系)假设的非殖民化在实践中可能意味着什么。更重要的是,它认为当代科学多元宇宙中的非殖民化应该同时是一个激进和谨慎的项目。因此,非殖民化不仅是全球北方的挑战,也是全球南方的挑战。本文所主张的非殖民化项目有助于对批判性政策研究进行新的本体论关注,并重新调整治理实践的关系焦点。

Democratizing science is an urgent, collective, and continuous project: expanding the boundaries of critical policy studies 科学民主化是一项紧迫的、集体的、持续的工程:扩大批判性政策研究的边界

As contemporary politics and governance unfold around an ever more urgent ‘sense of crisis’, the notion of crisis itself has become a prominent conceptual starting point for critically minded producers of scientific knowledge in the field of policy studies. Indeed, a year ago, just after Russian President Vladimir Putin had given the order to invade Ukraine and start a war that has caused tremendous suffering on all sides, the editors of this journal felt that the emerging sense of ‘turmoil’ required a revived debate about the social relevance of Critical Policy Studies (see issue 16.2). This call was very much in line with debates long invigorated by CPS editors and authors, highlighting how the social sense of crisis can expose and disrupt dominant policy discourses, open spaces for the critique of normalized policy and governance, reinforcing our ethical implications, but also potentially prompt the emergence of new ideational and institutional arrangements. Encouraged by this normative call, we see Critical Policy Studies as an ongoing endeavor to identify and nourish common intellectual roots: it is through critically exploring the interdependencies between policy, sense-making, and crisis scenarios globally and locally that our community of authors has contributed to more democratic and socially just forms of governance. This seems as urgent as ever in a world where, on the one hand, global and local inequalities and injustices have increased rather than decreased; violent conflicts, including genocide, continue; as do structural and institutional forms of racism, sexism, and classism; and where, on the other hand, democratic regimes have slidden into authoritarianism and are restricted to an increasingly smaller part of the world. Indeed, the progressive political forces, stunned by the expansion of ultra-right governments, have realized that behind the ultranationalist and ultraconservative discourses there is a dangerous global political and economic articulation, which puts the very essence of democracy at stake. As democracy only has strength and meaning when it unfolds as a collective process of public discussion, sense-making, contestation, and deliberation, editors of this journal – past and present – continue to ask how a journal like ours, whose primary interest is knowledge and its production, can nourish a collective stance in its defense. A first potential path concerns a type of policy studies that wants to critically engage with the world around us and facilitate democratic change. This community should continue to build on the critical exploration of dominant crisis narratives in the policy world in their specific spatiotemporal context, paying close attention to the ways in which ‘crisis’ frames and modes of operation bear on policy practice on the ground across different sites, but also in locating venues for deliberation and contestation in ‘crisis’ settings that can work toward global social justice and democratic altern
随着当代政治和治理围绕着一种更加紧迫的“危机感”展开,危机的概念本身已经成为政策研究领域中具有批判性思维的科学知识生产者的一个突出的概念起点。事实上,一年前,就在俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京下令入侵乌克兰并发动一场给各方造成巨大痛苦的战争之后,本刊的编辑们认为,新兴的“动荡”意识需要重新讨论关键政策研究的社会相关性(见第16.2期)。这一呼吁与CPS编辑和作者长期活跃的辩论非常一致,强调社会危机意识如何暴露和破坏主导政策话语,为规范政策和治理的批评开辟空间,加强我们的伦理含义,但也可能促进新的思想和制度安排的出现。在这一规范呼吁的鼓舞下,我们认为批判性政策研究是一项持续努力,旨在识别和滋养共同的知识根源:通过批判性地探索全球和地方政策、意义制定和危机情景之间的相互依存关系,我们的作者社区为更民主和社会公正的治理形式做出了贡献。这似乎比以往任何时候都紧迫,因为一方面,全球和地方的不平等和不公正现象增加而不是减少;包括种族灭绝在内的暴力冲突仍在继续;结构性和制度性的种族主义、性别歧视和阶级歧视也是如此;另一方面,民主政权已经滑向威权主义,并被限制在世界上越来越小的地区。事实上,被极右翼政府的扩张所震惊的进步政治力量已经意识到,在极端民族主义和极端保守主义的话语背后,存在着一种危险的全球政治和经济联合,这将危及民主的本质。由于民主只有在作为一个公共讨论、意义建构、争论和审议的集体过程展开时才有力量和意义,本刊的编辑们——过去和现在的——继续追问,像我们这样的主要兴趣是知识及其生产的杂志,如何才能滋养一个集体的立场来捍卫它。第一种可能的路径涉及一种政策研究,这种研究希望批判性地与我们周围的世界接触,并促进民主变革。这个社区应该继续在其特定时空背景下对政策世界中占主导地位的危机叙事进行批判性探索,密切关注“危机”框架和运作模式对不同地点的政策实践的影响方式,以及在“危机”环境中寻找审议和辩论场所的方式,这些场所可以朝着全球社会正义和民主选择的方向努力。关键政策研究2023,第17卷,第17期。1,1 - 3 https://doi.org/10.1080/19460171.2023.2184707

Indeed, a year ago, just after Russian President Vladimir Putin had given the order to invade Ukraine and start a war that has caused tremendous suffering on all sides, the editors of this journal felt that the emerging sense of ‘turmoil’ required a revived debate about the social relevance of Critical Policy Studies (see issue 16.2). This call was very much in line with debates long invigorated by CPS editors and authors, highlighting how the social sense of crisis can expose and disrupt dominant policy discourses, open spaces for the critique of normalized policy and governance, reinforcing our ethical implications, but also potentially prompt the emergence of new ideational and institutional arrangements. Encouraged by this normative call, we see Critical Policy Studies as an ongoing endeavor to identify and nourish common intellectual roots: it is through critically exploring the interdependencies between policy, sense-making, and crisis scenarios globally and locally that our community of authors has contributed to more democratic and socially just forms of governance. This seems as urgent as ever in a world where, on the one hand, global and local inequalities and injustices have increased rather than decreased; violent conflicts, including genocide, continue; as do structural and institutional forms of racism, sexism, and classism; and where, on the other hand, democratic regimes have slidden into authoritarianism and are restricted to an increasingly smaller part of the world. Indeed, the progressive political forces, stunned by the expansion of ultra-right governments, have realized that behind the ultranationalist and ultraconservative discourses there is a dangerous global political and economic articulation, which puts the very essence of democracy at stake. As democracy only has strength and meaning when it unfolds as a collective process of public discussion, sense-making, contestation, and deliberation, editors of this journal – past and present – continue to ask how a journal like ours, whose primary interest is knowledge and its production, can nourish a collective stance in its defense. A first potential path concerns a type of policy studies that wants to critically engage with the world around us and facilitate democratic change. This community should continue to build on the critical exploration of dominant crisis narratives in the policy world in their specific spatiotemporal context, paying close attention to the ways in which ‘crisis’ frames and modes of operation bear on policy practice on the ground across different sites, but also in locating venues for deliberation and contestation in ‘crisis’ settings that can work toward global social justice and democratic altern","PeriodicalId":51625,"journal":{"name":"Critical Policy Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43306201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
