1 Political Science 244d Contentious Politics in Contemporary China Kevin J. O'Brien Spring 2012 Wednesday 12-2pm, 791 Barrows Office Hours: By Appt. (T, W, Th) 712 Barrows Course Description: Much political behavior, particularly in countries such as China, does not take place within institutionalized channels. This is mainly because the Party/State aggregates preferences poorly and the popular classes often become frustrated with existing opportunities for participation. Moreover, honest elections occur only at the lowest levels -- if at all -- and many forms of political activity are forbidden. In these circumstances, how do ordinary Chinese press for attention to their grievances and for a modicum of responsiveness? In this seminar, we will investigate how concepts developed to study social movements and collective action help (or fail to help!) us understand protest in contemporary China. Substantively, we will examine the origins, dynamics and outcomes of contention and the politics of repression and accommodation. We will range from open challenges to authority to "everyday forms of resistance," to actions that are veiled, even questionably political. We will pay particular attention to forms of contention that are somewhat noisier and more overt than everyday resistance yet still fall far short of open rebellion. Course materials: 1) Yongshun Cai, Collective Resistance in China: Why Popular Protests Succeed or Fail (Stanford, 2010) 2) Ching Kwan Lee, Against the Law: Labor Protests in China s Rustbelt and Sunbelt (California, 2007) paperback 3) Kevin J. O Brien and Lianjiang Li, Rightful Resistance in Rural China (Cambridge, 2006) paperback 4) Kevin J. O Brien, ed. Popular Protest in China (Harvard, 2008) paperback 5) Sidney Tarrow, Power in Movement: Social Movements, Collective Action and Politics, 3 rd edition, (Cambridge, 2011) paperback 6) Guobin Yang, The Power of the Internet in China: Citizen Activism Online (Columbia, 2009) paperback 7) A packet of book chapters and articles not available on the Web 8) Articles on the web, available through UCB library electronic journals tab Course Requirements: 1
2 3 seminar papers (30% of final grade) -- Due Monday at 5pm of the three weeks for which a student is responsible. (Copies should be ed to each seminar member and to the instructor). Each paper (no more than 3-4 double-spaced pages) should critically engage the readings assigned for that week. Students may focus on gaps or conflicts in one or more of the readings and may bring in relevant material from other courses. The purpose of these papers is to stimulate class discussion. Papers should not be a summary but rather an effort to highlight an important substantive or theoretical point (or points), a methodological issue, and/or an assumption that underlies or permeates the reading(s). Efforts should be made to explore ways in which the readings relate to each other and how they help us improve our understanding of popular contention and/or Chinese politics. You might also consider how the readings speak to other areas of political science or other areas of the world with which you are familiar. During class, each author will need to be ready to explain (and expand upon) the points he or she raised. Hint: When preparing your papers, pretend you are an overburdened student racing to figure out "why this article or book is so important" the night before your qualifying exams page research paper or a take-home essay exam (50% of final grade). If there is sufficient demand, students may also opt to do a take-home exam made up of two essay questions. Class participation (20% of course grade) -- All students will be expected to participate in class discussions and to come to class prepared to consider the seminar papers for that week.
