Participatory policy making under authoritarianism: the pathways of local budgetary reform in the People's Republic of China
Citizen participation in policy making is essential in democracies, but there is much less understanding of the process and substance of it in non-democratic states. Taking local budgetary process as an example, this article compares three pathways of participatory reform undertaken by the communist regime in China, namely the representative pathway, the consultative pathway and the transparency pathway. All three are initiated and administered by the local governments, but differ in a number of crucial aspects from the level of institutionalisation to the form of state– citizenry interaction. These three pathways provide directions the Party-state might consider for nationwide policy reform.
